Dragon Jump - An endless jumper with some minor twists
|
| Dragon Jump

Dragon Jump is an endless jumper with a couple of minor twists.

You play a spear-wielding knight stationed atop a tall tower. Dragons of all shapes and sizes whizz overhead in various flight patterns.

It's possible to deal with these beasts in two ways - either jump on their heads if they're low enough, or jump into them with your spear if they're higher. There's also the occasional boss, which needs to be jabbed whenever an opening presents itself.

Dragon Jump is just about fresh enough to stand out from the mediocre crowd, but there's a randomness to the dragon bombardment and a cruelty to the collision detection that robs the game of potential joy.

Ultimately Dragon Jump is just too frustratingly haphazard to warrant too many repeat visits.

Jon is a consummate expert in adventure, action, and sports games. Which is just as well, as in real life he's timid, lazy, and unfit. It's amazing how these things even themselves out.
