    Surprisingly enjoyable and dirt cheap, even if dead simple. Push 2 buttons, left or right to jump left or right up a mine shaft. Super easy, but engaging and enjoyable. Helps that its on a system that can be portable.

    It's fun to play on the toilet. A couple characters to unlock and a bunch of in-game bonuses.

    Jumping Joe! & Friends is an entertaining endless runner-cum-platformer that promises hours of fun. Whether alone or with a friend, you can always find new challenges. Just be aware that the gameplay - as should be expected - can feel repetitive after a while, and the brightly-coloured graphics can be a strain on the eyes after a prolonged playing session.

    All in all, Jumping Joe and Friends is your typical smartphone experience – shallow, repetitive and lacking any real hook to keep you playing. Even the multiplayer wears out its welcome in a matter of minutes. The list of excellent or just fun Switch titles is already a long one and continues to grow with every passing week. Any one of those would be a better investment than Jumping Joe and Friends.

    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.
