Jumping Joe & Friends
Jumping Joe & Friends is well developed and fun, but by its very nature is not the type of game you’ll play with any degree of frequency. It’s more like those board games you find stashed away on the upper shelf of the closet and think, “Hey, I remember this! This was fun!” But then you get it down and play a few rounds and soon remember why it had been up on that shelf for so long.

Jumping Joe & Friends is built upon incredibly basic foundations. You jump and you don’t stop until it is game over. It never expands upon this initial concept. Even when compared to other titles like it, it makes little to no effort to excel above the rest (pun intended), with basic artwork, similar modes, a single song on loop and uninspired gameplay - highlighting how monotonous it is. Again, it’s essentially an enhanced port of a free-to-play mobile title. We also know QubicGames can do better than this – with the likes of Robonauts. This one, though, is more in line with the limitations of Astro Bears Party. Given its simplicity and bright presentation, it’s best recommended for a younger audience.

Very basic but highly approachable, with an addictive gameplay hook and cheap entry fee, Jumping Joe & Friends is a strong candidate for impulse purchasing on Nintendo Switch eShop, and offers more depth than its basic aesthetic would suggest. Online connectivity would have done wonders for potential replay value, but for pick-up-and-play Switch gaming, this one is hard to beat.
