JumpJet Rex

JumpJet Rex

Game • 2015

JumpJet Rex is a punishing, old school 2-D platformer where players take control of a Tyrannosaurus Rex with extraterrestrial jump boots to save dino-kind from extinction by a giant asteroid. As Rex, players will jump, drop and dash through more than 40 challenging levels and race against the clock to not only preserve life during the Mesozoic era, but also prove their platforming prowess against other dino enthusiasts. Players can explore the galaxy and unlock new worlds alone or team up with a friend in co-op mode, where players will need to coordinate movements to get past challenges.

Ages 8+, but every child is different

The high difficulty level and demanding reflex requirements of this platformer are better suited for older children with developed fine motor skills. Younger players may experience frustration due to the punishing nature of the time-trial mechanics.
