Doodle Jump is an adventure in which you jump from one platform
to the next. Avoid obstacles by shooting or dodging them, and
pick up many awesome power-up items. Doodle Jump's objective is
to control and guide a four-legged creature that looks like a
doodle, whose name is Doodler. You will guide Doodler to move up
in a jumping motion to a never-ending series of platforms
without falling down. It would be boring if that was all there
was to the game, so players have to avoid obstacles like
monsters and UFOs. There are numerous ways to avoid these
obstacles, such as by shooting them or jumping in a different
direction. Keep in mind that there is no definitive end to the
game. You'll notice the end of each gameplay session when the
Doodler falls to the bottom of the screen and then jumps into a
random monster that appears at that time. Other ways include
being sucked into a black hole or being abducted by a UFO. How
exciting is that, right?
Doodle Jump is a well-liked and highly rated game. This game
has received many positive reviews from critics. TouchGen has

items provide them with a sense of game charm. Also, Pocket
Gamer's Tom Love stated that the game is "unbelievably
addictive, immediately accessible, and enjoyable every time
you pick it up." At the moment, Doodle Jump holds a rating of
85.00% based on 6 reviews on GameRankings.
Features
Doodle Jump creates several fantastic worlds with high
creative context for players to experience, such as
underwater, in the jungle, ninja background, out of space,
snowing weather, frozen ice, soccer, Hallowen, Easter and
Pirates, etc.
There are 11 worlds to explore, each with three hidden
Easter eggs.
Players have many outstanding power-ups to pick up like
trampolines, jet packs, rockets, propeller hats, etc.
There are many fun and interesting things to avoid, like
big monsters, UFOs, and black holes.
An exciting point for players is that there are more than
100 missions to complete in order to achieve the
reward.
The jumping move to bring monsters down has a nostalgic
effect, similar to Mario's style.
With the broken, disappearing, moving, and exploding
effects, Platform can be very interesting and fun.
The good news for players who like to compete is that a
global chart is already available to display your score. And
of course, you can challenge other players to find out who
is the champion.
Tips and Tricks
Depending on the game mode that you are playing,
projectiles may shoot in a straight direction off the screen
or be affected by gravity and fall
downward.
There are various themes that players can choose to play,
including the original, Christmas, Easter, Halloween, the
World Cup, the Rainforest, Out of Space, Ice Blizzard, Retro
Arcade, Ninja or Pirate. When the theme changes, Doodler and
his enemies change along with it.
In the Ninja, Pirate, Halloween, and Easter themes, players
need to earn or purchase coins so that they are able to buy
new skins and extra lives for Doodler.
If a player wants the Doodler to become a pygmy, all they
need to do is enter the name of one of the Pocket God
pygmies. So easy! Furthermore, players can give the name
"Bunny" to Doodler, who is dressed in a bunny suit similar
to the one seen on the Easter stage.
Two other apps for the iPhone OS are Doodle Jump Christmas
Special (a new Christmas theme), Doodle Jump Hop, (a new
Easter theme), which allows players to play as E.B. from the
movie Hop, and Doodle Jump SpongeBob SquarePants.
How To Play
To move left or right, use the right and left arrows; to
shoot, use the up arrow or click the mouse.
Fun fact
If you are a fan of iPhone games, then you might find it
interesting to know that Doodler has appeared as a cameo in
several other iPhone games, such as Pocket God, Parachute
Panic, The Creeps, and Finger Physics.
Sheldon Cooper has mentioned Doodle Jump on The Big Bang
Theory, an American sitcom that is very popular. And right
after that, Pocket Gamer has estimated that this game will
reach 1 million downloads.
Doodle Jump has even been used in advertising. According to
that, Sprint Company ran a commercial with Kevin Durant in
2012 that made it seem like a viewer missed their chance to
win a sports game because they used up all of their data
plan's quota downloading Doodle Jump.
