Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a deep combat system may find the focus on jumping and dodging restrictive.
- Those who prefer a varied set of core activities may find the repeated dungeon-platforming structure limiting.
- Players looking for a story-led adventure may find the stated plot brief.
- Players seeking multiplayer play may find the solo cat-and-dungeon premise a poor match.
Our take on Jumping Cat
The game keeps its controls centered on movement: jumping, wall jumps, and sliding handle the hazards. That focus leaves little room for other kinds of play, so variety depends on the traps and level layouts rather than a broader set of mechanics.
What is Jumping Cat?
Jumping Cat is a platform game about guiding a cat through dungeons to collect Gold Coins and Paw Gems.
Movement centers on jumping, wall jumps, and wall sliding, which can be used to get around hazards such as saws, thorns, hidden spears, flames, and lava drops. Some traps can pursue the cat after being avoided, so rushing through an area can be risky. The game includes a hidden map and nearly 100 levels. The stated goal is to gather gems and revive the lost kingdom.
