Helix Jump Game 3D has a cartoon boy bouncing down a tall spiral tower set in front of a fairy-tale castle. You turn the tower so he drops through the gaps, and you steer clear of the red sections. It is quick to pick up and easy to have another go after a fall.
How to play
The boy bounces up and down on the tower's platforms. Hold and slide to spin the tower so a gap lines up under him, and he drops down to the next layer. Black sections are safe to land on, but red sections end your run. Blue gems sit on some platforms and add to your gem counter.
The title screen offers an Endless mode and a Levels mode. Your score goes up as you fall, and the Game Over screen shows your score and best score. From there you can restart, go back to the menu, or revive by spending 10 gems or watching a video.
Controls
- Hold and slide: spin the tower
Tips
- Look a layer or two ahead so you know where the next gap is before you drop.
- Treat red sections as no-go zones and turn the tower so the boy lands on black.
- Small, controlled slides are safer than big swipes, which can spin a red section under the boy.
- Pick up the blue gems when it is safe, as 10 gems buys a revive after a fall.
Who it's for
Suits younger players and anyone after a short, simple arcade game. The single control is easy to learn, though it gets harder once more red sections appear.
