Helix Jump
Helix Jump – now on Xbox and PC

Prepare for some fast-paced, reflex-testing fun! Helix Jump, the wildly popular mobile game sensation developed by VOODOO, has officially made its landing on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Windows PC.

Published by QubicGames, this addictive arcade experience is available for the incredibly low price of £4.19, currently discounted to just £3.35 for launch!

Bringing the simple yet challenging formula to consoles and PC, Helix Jump also includes local multiplayer modes and supports Xbox Play Anywhere, making it an amazing value package.

Don’t Hit the Red!

The premise of Helix Jump is instantly understandable: guide a bouncing ball as it drops like a brick through a towering helix structure. Rotate the platforms to find the gaps and let the ball fall through, aiming to reach the bottom as quickly as possible.

There’s just one crucial rule: avoid the red spots! Hit one, and your ball shatters, forcing you to start the fall all over again.

Mastering your reflexes and looking ahead is key. Quick successive drops through multiple levels activate combo moves for higher points, and if you clear three levels consecutively, you’ll gain temporary invincibility via a powerful fireball mode that can even smash through trap platforms (though some obstacles like switches and metal platforms require more strategy, especially in boss levels!).

Solo Endurance & Multiplayer Mayhem

Helix Jump offers more than just the core solo experience:

  • Solo Mode: Jump into a potentially never-ending adventure with unlimited levels, testing your skills and pushing for high scores against increasingly tricky platform layouts and bosses.
  • Local Multiplayer (Up to 4 Players): Compete against friends and family on the same couch in three different modes:Highest Score: Aim for points while avoiding score deductions.
  • First to Finish: A race to the bottom.
  • Time Limit: See who can descend the furthest before time runs out.

You can also unlock a variety of funny skins to customize your bouncing ball!

Spice Up the Party with DLC!

Launching alongside the main game are two cheap and cheerful DLC packs for £1.69 each:

  • Helix Jump: Party Skins DLC: Unlocks 9 unique skins immediately (TV, Eyeball, Icosahedron, Sweet ball, Drone, Boletus, Ham, Volleyball, Helmet with horns) and adds 2000 bonus coins to help unlock others faster.
  • Helix Jump: Letter Madness DLC: Adds a brand-new local multiplayer mode, “Get Them All,” where players race to collect letters spelling a word while navigating the helix. Also includes 2000 bonus coins.

Xbox Play Anywhere Support Included

As another fantastic value proposition, Helix Jump supports Xbox Play Anywhere. Purchase the game digitally once via the Xbox Store for that low £3.35 launch price, and you automatically own it on both your Xbox console (One or Series X|S) and your Windows PC.

Your progress, achievements, and unlocked skins sync seamlessly between platforms!

More Quick Fun from QubicGames

QubicGames is no stranger to bringing accessible, budget-friendly arcade and puzzle games to the Xbox Store. This launch follows hot on the heels of their recent maze-painting puzzler AMAZE!. Helix Jump continues their trend of offering addictive “time killer” games perfect for quick sessions.

Key Features

  • Addictive Arcade Gameplay: Drop the ball, rotate the helix, avoid the red!
  • Simple Controls, High Skill Ceiling: Easy to learn, challenging to master reflexes.
  • Solo & Local Multiplayer (Up to 4 Players): Endless solo levels or compete in 3 multiplayer modes.
  • Unlockable Skins & DLC: Customise your ball and add a new multiplayer mode.
  • Boss Levels & Obstacles: Face unique challenges as you descend.

Ready to Take the Plunge?

Helix Jump offers proven, addictive arcade gameplay that’s perfect for killing time solo or sparking some fun competition with friends locally. It’s available right now on the Xbox Store (for Xbox and PC).

Helix Jump Description

Your ball drops like a brick through colorful helix platforms that block its descent, but if you hit a red spot, it’s over! Your ball shatters to pieces and you have to start your fall all over again. Even traps platforms are no match for a fireball falling at full speed! Choose your strategy: speed up like a madman or stop and wait for your next chance to roll and jump!

An Xbox gamer since 2002, I bought the big black box just to play Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee. I have since loved every second of the 360's life and am now just as obsessed with the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S - mostly with the brilliant indie scene that has come to the fore. Gamertag is neil363, feel free to add me to your list.
