Jump King, the 2D platformer that has become a staple for gamers who enjoy a challenging experience, is now available on mobile devices. Developed by Nexile and published by UKIYO Publishing, the game has been released worldwide for Android and iOS following a successful soft launch in the UK, Canada, the Philippines, and Denmark in March this year. This mobile version brings the same demanding jumping mechanics that made the game famous on PC and consoles, where it was released in 2019 and 2020 respectively.
What’s Jump King on Mobile Like?
In Jump King, you take on the role of an armored knight whose sole mission is to jump. But don't let the simplicity fool you; the jumps require pinpoint precision. A single misstep sends you plummeting back to the start, though the game auto-saves every jump to ease the frustration slightly. Your ultimate goal is to reach the top and meet the Smoking Hot Babe of Legend. However, she offers no shortcuts; one wrong move, and you're back to square one.
The controls have been meticulously adapted for mobile, requiring you to hold to charge your jump and release to leap. It’s a test of precision, patience, and sometimes, panic as you make those crucial split-second decisions.
What Else Should You Know?
Jump King Mobile operates on a heart-based system, starting you off with 300 hearts. Each fall costs you one heart. To replenish your stock, you can spin a daily fortune wheel for a chance to win between 10 and 150 hearts, or watch ads to gain up to 150 free hearts.
The mobile version includes two full expansions: New Babe+, which introduces a second chapter with a unique and challenging new path, and Ghost of the Babe, a third act set in a hauntingly empty landscape beyond the Philosopher’s Forest.
If Jump King piques your interest, you can download it now from the Google Play Store.
