Doodle Jump is a fun light hearted game—no beads of sweat will form on your forehead with this game. But you may let out a few expletives as well as a smile or 2. 

In Doodle Jump, your character is some sort of alien that jumps around. You need to move him from platform to platform and climb higher and higher up the screen. To do this, you tilt your screen side to side. As you tilt it, your character moves.

As you climb higher, you’ll encounter all sorts of “good” things—such as springs, jet packs, and “moving” platforms; You’ll also encounter “bad” things such as broken platforms, holes in the paper, and “bad guys”. If your character falls off a platform or hits a ‘bad guy’, your game is over.

Can a game get any simpler? Well, I guess it could; but that’s not really the point here. Although Doodle Jump is very simple; the “cute” factor, the fun game play,  and high replay value makes this game a thumbs up.

On a side note, one of the ‘niceities’ of the game is that along the right side you can see you’ll see lines (and names) of where other people’s game ended. It’s a nice way to see your “position” in the game without having to compare just your score.
