Summary
A tough but fair platformer, Mr. Run And Jump is a classic precision platformer with a lot of charm and even more neon! You go from level to level chasing down a dog and along the way, you get story tidbits and new powers. It has a system whereby you learn new actions and with them, you can go back to previous levels and access the previously unreachable parts. This is not a kid’s game in any way and will test the mettle of any seasoned vets of the genre, I found the assist system to help but even then it doesn’t really negate the high difficulty bar especially if you are going for 100 percent completion. This is a brilliant little platformer and does a good job of blending the old with the new.
