Jump Car iPhone Review

Ketchapp is one of the best designers of mobile games. They have released a number of popular titles in the past few years. Their most recent release that they are hoping will "jump" to the top is Jump Car.

The Good

Jump Car is a one-touch game in which your car drives back and forth on a platform and your goal is to get your car higher and higher by making it jump up to the next platform and see how high you can get before hitting another car. The games controls are simple; all you need to do is to touch the screen to make the car jump. The controls are very responsive and how long you tap and hold the screen is how high your car will jump. Just tapping and hold the screen will let you get to the next platform, but sometimes you need to avoid cars on your level, so you can tap lightly to avoid them and cars above you. The game keeps track of a lot of your stats including best record, day record, session record, and average record. This is well appreciated to let you know your progress and if you are improving.

The Bad

Jump Car is a little light on content. There is no music and the game doesn't have a real hook to keep you interested in it for a long time. While it is a very simplistic game, it doesn't have the same addicting nature as other simplistic one-touch games have had in the past.

The Verdict

Jump Car is a fun game but doesn't have the charm that other simplistic one-touch games have. The game is fun for a few rounds, but isn't as addicting to play as some other games are. The game doesn't have a hook that will keep people playing it like people played Flappy Bird. The game is fairly mediocre and will not stand the test of time.
