If you're a regular visitor to our site (and who wouldn't be?), you might have caught Will Quick's latest review of the hardcore puzzling platformer, Jump King. For those captivated by this game, exciting news awaits: Jump King is now in soft launch on both iOS and Android!
Jump King follows a classic premise where you, as the titular character, embark on a quest to ascend an enormous tower, driven by the allure of a "smoking hot babe" at its peak. While the narrative might not win any literary awards, Jump King isn't about storytelling; it's all about the challenge. And what a challenge it presents!
The game boasts a steep difficulty curve paired with deceptively simple controls. You move left or right and then jump. Sounds easy, right? Think again. The intricate and often perilous levels will test even the most seasoned platformer aficionados. With complex layouts and leaps of faith, your patience will be pushed to the limit, but the thrill of landing that next jump is immensely rewarding.
Might as well jumpWhile Will Quick did mention some concerns about the mobile version's monetization strategy, there's still a lot to appreciate in Jump King. If you're a fan of hardcore platformers like Super Meat Boy, enjoy crisp pixel art, and are drawn to a visually enchanting fantasy world, Jump King could be right up your alley.
However, if you're in the mood for something a bit more somber and equally challenging, consider checking out Blasphemous. This 2D hack 'n slash game trades platforming for Dark Souls-inspired Metroidvania combat, featuring tough bosses and a deeply atmospheric, grim fantasy world to explore.
