So you have a Hungry Jungle. And then you have soldiers, guerillas, insurgents, etc. trekking through it. Suddenly, all hell breaks loose as two or more factions struggle against dwindling supplies, scarce food, the enemy at every corner, the elements, and of course, the jungle itself. Jungle Warfare is what it says, fighting that takes place in a remote jungle or lush tropical rainforest, usually on a remote island or somewhere far away from civilization. When there are civilians, they're usually confined to a small village, usually near a river. In these kinds of situations, expect elite troops, usually those specialized or experienced in trekking through remote and hostile environments, sending patrols deep into remote enemy territory, rebels or enemy soldiers planting different kinds of booby traps, and communication and supply problems. If tanks are involved, expect them to be bogged down in mud during a monsoon, knocked out by anti-tank traps, or simply unable to plow through thick vegetation. Expect a mix of Scenery Porn and Scenery Gorn, depending on how bad the surrounding vegetation is removed, and with it the use of Flamethrowers or other forms of flame-based weapons. Often involves soldiers wearing camouflage over their uniforms either moving slowly through the jungle or waiting in ambush, as well as men, guns, or vehicles concealed by trees. Much like Urban Warfare, Jungle Warfare can be a nightmare for any advancing army that doesen't have a firm grasp of the place. Even untrained militamen or under-equipped soldiers with a vast knowledge of the jungle can wreak havoc on even the most experienced and trained of soldiers venturing in. Unlike the former, the jungle itself can also be as much of a hazard on both friendly and enemy forces. Among these hazards include diseases like malaria and dysentery, local flora and fauna, and even the mere vastness of the jungle itself, where patrols can get lost simply from making a wrong turn in. In Real Life, it's usually associated with The Vietnam War, as well as World War II's Pacific and China-Burma-India Theater, where such fighting was all too common. Compare and contrast with the aforementioned Urban Warfare, Winter Warfare, Desert Warfare, and Mountain Warfare where fighting takes place in cities/towns, in cold, snowy conditions, in scorching deserts, and mountains, respectively, though there have been cases where this trope can overlap with the former (Manila during World War II and Hue City during The Vietnam War, for example). Thanks to the climate, a Battle in the Rain is expected almost half the time. And more often than not, this can also easily overlap with Tropical Island Adventure, as a lot of untouched jungles are located on remote islands, and a lot of times the belligerent factions will have to deal with actually trekking through the jungles as well as fighting the enemy. |

Predator takes place in an unnamed Central American country almost entirely covered by jungle. The fighting between Dutch's rescue team and the guerillas involves standard infiltration tactics and a surprise attack. The battle against the title space alien uses tripwires, Claymore mines and physical traps reminiscent of the Vietnam War. | |

The Missing in Action trilogy is all set in Vietnam. While the first film came out seven months before Rambo II, the series has been credibly accused of copying its plot since its script was based off of the original script for Rambo II with just enough details changed to avoid a lawsuit, and then the movie's release was sped up to get it out first. | |

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater takes place in the fictional Tselinoyarsk jungle, also in Central Asia.

Rising Storm has the Guadalcanal, Kobura, Maggot Hill, Phosphate Plant, Hanto, and Otori Shima maps, where US Marines and US Army troops battle against the Imperial Japanese army in thick jungles and low visibility. The only exceptions are Peleliu, Kwajalein, Betio, and Iwo Jima, thanks to constant artillery shelling burning down most vegetation enough to avert this from happening. Saipan, meanwhile, takes place in the middle of an urban area, rather than in the jungles of the island. | |

Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow features this as its major gameplay change from the first game. Almost half the game's missions take place in the Indonesian jungle in broad daylight, so Fisher's stealth tactics require blending in with tall grass and foliage in addition to the usual dark shadows. The first flashback mission of the Essentials PSP game also takes place in Colombia as Fisher looks to rescue Doug Shetland from a FARC terrorist cell. | |

Warhammer 40,000: The natives of the jungle Death World of Catachan have a culture based on every warfare Trope related to The Vietnam War and films like the Rambo franchise. The chance of surviving to adulthood is maybe one in four, there's no permanent settlements because the plants grow back on/into everything, there're scorpions the size of tanks and toads that explode in a diameter of a kilometer, the jungle is possibly sentient and hates humanity... and consequently, the Catachans are the best damn jungle fighters in the galaxy (even seeing off a Warp invasion with no assistance). | |

Call of Duty: Peleliu, and to a lesser extent, Makin, in Call of Duty: World at War, at least when the vegetation isn't razed by artillery fire or fighting takes place in or near Japanese holdouts. Okinawa is a downplayed example, as the environment is instead a sub-tropical rainforest, but a lot of the elements of this trope still apply. "Victor Charlie", "Crash Site", and "Payback" in Call of Duty: Black Ops, which is set against the backdrop of The Vietnam War. |

Alien: The Roleplaying Game mentions O'Bannon's World, a single biome moon that was the site of the Dog War, a conflict between the United Americas and the Union of Progressive Peoples over the information stored on a UPP medical ship that crashed on the planet. It features dense jungle dangerous predators, and vines that thirst for warm blood. To make matters worse, the interaction between the magnetic fields of the moon and planet it orbits makes wireless electronic communication incredibly difficult without the use of large, stationary relays, meaning anyone who runs into trouble will have difficulty calling for help. The planet is named for a member of the USCM corps who was killed by aforementioned vines during the Dog War. | |

ARMA III's expansion Apex is set in the Pacific island of Tanoa; the island is sprawling with a thick jungle, although in a slight subversion, the map also offers area where the jungle was deforested to create open fields, farms and some fairly sized towns. There's even a part of the island where the forest is composed by pine trees, probably reforested wood for the nearby sawmill. | |

The second game in the Strike Series, Jungle Strike, primarily takes place in a Banana Republic off the South American Pacific coast. One of the major gameplay changes is the ability to pilot a hovercraft for fast movement among narrow waters and small islands. | |

Peleliu, and to a lesser extent, Makin, in Call of Duty: World at War, at least when the vegetation isn't razed by artillery fire or fighting takes place in or near Japanese holdouts. Okinawa is a downplayed example, as the environment is instead a sub-tropical rainforest, but a lot of the elements of this trope still apply. | |

Revenge of the Sith: A Recycled IN SPACE! equivalent shows up with the planet Felucia. While it only shows up for one short scene in the movie proper, it sees much more focus in the Expanded Universe. Kashyyyk, though in this case the battle is more of a case of the Droids Storming the Beaches. |

The Odd Angry Shot follows the tour of duty of an Australian Special Air Service Regiment reconnaissance team in the jungles of Vietnam. It was filmed at the Australian Army's notoriously adverse Jungle Warfare Training Centre in Canungra, Queensland. During the Vietnam War, all Australian soldiers — including draftees — who were to be deployed to Vietnam went through four weeks' specialized training in Canungra. | |

Medal of Honor: Most of Medal of Honor: Pacific Assault takes place in the jungles of the South Pacific. Of course, the Japanese, who are more experienced in trekking through these jungles, use a number of tactics well-suited for the environment, including laying dead. Medal of Honor: Rising Sun also has Guadalcanal, with the addition of the China-Burma-India Theater as one of the late-game levels. |
