Jump King brings classic platforming action and rage-inducing difficulty to mobile, out now in soft launch

Mar 15,2025 Author: Julian

Jump King, the hardcore platforming sensation, has finally landed on Android and iOS! Prepare for a progressively challenging tower climb with deceptively simple controls and incredibly complex levels.

This lavishly pixelated fantasy world, despite its charming visuals, hides a surprisingly irreverent tone. As Jump King, you'll ascend a massive tower, lured by the promise of a "smoking hot babe" at the summit. Don't expect Shakespearean storytelling; Jump King is all about the brutal, rewarding challenge.

Expect a hardcore difficulty curve and deceptively simple controls: move left, right, and jump. Sounds easy, right? Think again. The intricate and treacherous levels will test even the most seasoned platformer veterans. Complex layouts and leaps of faith will demand patience, but the satisfaction of each successful jump is immensely rewarding.

While our reviewer, Will Quick, noted some concerns about the mobile port's monetization, the core gameplay remains captivating. Fans of brutally difficult platformers like Super Meat Boy, and those who appreciate crisp pixel art and a visually stunning fantasy world, will find much to love in Jump King.

However, if you're craving a darker, more serious, yet equally challenging experience, consider Blasphemous. This 2D hack-and-slash game forgoes platforming for Dark Souls-inspired Metroidvania combat, featuring challenging bosses and a grim, captivating fantasy world.
