### 1/5 — Poor mechanics and controls......

*2015-01-06*

I would say don't even bother downloading this, but if you're curious like me, then you probably will anyways. Especially because the graphics have their charms, but are quickly over-shadowed by poor gameplay. So go ahead.try the game  and get it out of the way, so that next time your catch a glimps of this game's seemingly charming asthetics you will know better and won't have to worry that you might have passed up a potentially great platformer...

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2014-06-10*

The game has very poor mechanics. As well as the fact that ads pop up mid gameplaying cause you to die. Almost too much fail to quantify here just like his other games

### 2/5 — My review

*2014-07-13*

This game is somewhat similar to the mario but clearly not as good. It has way too many ads randomly appear in the game to make u die so to show u a new set of ads again!!

### 2/5 — So many advertisements

*2014-07-10*

There are so many advertisements in the game! Before I can even start the game there is an advertisement to another game! Instructions in the sky are not very noticeable.

### 3/5 — Nice graphics

*2015-01-26*

Classic platformer gameplay with nice graphics

### 3/5 — Good game, bad ads

*2014-07-15, version 1.1.1*

The game is ok, controls are smooth and graphics are cute. video ads spoil it as they show up in annoying places.

### 3/5 — Neither here nor there

*2014-07-12, version 1.1.1*

As far as platformers go Jack is a interesting take although unfortunately is spoiled by those awful video adverts which break up the gameplay. Otherwise if you like the like of mario world you'll love Jack the controls are easy to use, levels are as smooth as silk and the levels can be challenging

### 4/5 — Fun little platformer

*2015-01-17*

Very addicting, I also love the graphics

### 4/5 — Nice pixel art

*2014-07-10*

Cool graphics and great control. Too many ads but well worth the download.

### 4/5 — Classic

*2014-07-09*

I like to play this game. It is simple and enjoyable.Try to download it if you are tired of fast paced game that needs a lot of effort to win;)

*2014-07-19*

This game has pros and cons. 
Pros: it's fun

### 4/5 — Good

*2014-06-12, version 1.1.0*

This game is quite ok. It's not much special like I imagine.
