Chuck that old Monopoly board in the bin because Jump Stars is ready to hit you with some fun, frantic and fantastic minigames.
Available right now on Xbox One and PS4, Jump Stars will pit you against your friends (2-4 local buddies) in an array of wacky minigames including ‘TNT Tag’ and ‘Hunger Pains’ in an attempt to become the minigame master amongst your fellow gamers – just don’t expect those ‘friends’ of yours to be too pleased when you send them tumbling to their doom.
Not only will you have to beat your buddies, but Jump Stars introduces an element of co-op, whereby every player must gather a certain amount of points to unlock the end-game Gauntlet, and that won’t happen if you are hell-bent on kicking them off the map upon starting. Balancing between competitive and cooperative play is key.
For the price of £7.99 Jump Stars is waiting – waiting for you to take the opportunity to show your friends who’s boss! The Xbox Games Store will let you in on the action, whilst our hands-on preview can tell you more about the game. Our full review is coming soon too.
Jump Stars was released a couple of days back on PS4 if that is your weapon of choice.
Game Description:
Introducing Jump Stars, the bonkers new local multiplayer party game which pits player against player in a bizarre, violent game show – whilst they collectively compete to save their skins. Cooperate as a team to get as much score as you can, then jump, punch, break, munch, explode, and crunch your teammates out the way to steal first place! Try to reach “The Gauntlet” by getting enough team score in each of four random mini-games chosen by the ominously cuckoo host, in “Tournament”! Or, build your very own line-up, choosing from a array of unique mini-games across 25 different settings, in “My Show”. Then pick one of 24 different cosplaying Cubee contestants to play as!
