Jumanji: The Video Game, developed by Funsolve LTD and published by Outright Games, sets out to capture the adventurous spirit of the modern Jumanji films by transforming the movie’s jungle chaos into a cooperative third-person action game. On paper, the concept holds promise—players take on the roles of the familiar movie avatars, exploring lush environments, battling waves of enemies, and solving light puzzles to restore order to the game world. The setup is designed for both local and online co-op, allowing up to four players to work together to complete objectives and survive the perils of the jungle. It’s an idea that fits naturally with the movie’s tone of teamwork and frantic energy, but unfortunately, the execution struggles to deliver the excitement or depth one might expect from such a premise. At its core, Jumanji: The Video Game is a cooperative shooter built around a very simple gameplay loop. Each level tasks players with retrieving a magical jewel, activating a series of totems or switches, and fighting off waves of enemies along the way. Once the objectives are completed, the group advances to the next stage, repeating the process. While this setup might sound serviceable for casual play, the problem lies in how quickly the repetition sets in. The missions follow nearly identical patterns across every map, offering little variation in objectives or strategy. Enemies, though visually different, behave similarly from level to level, and the lack of environmental interactivity makes exploration feel shallow. Rather than feeling like a dynamic adventure, each level becomes a formulaic run through corridors and arenas that soon blur together. Combat, while functional, lacks the weight or complexity needed to make the encounters engaging. Each of the four characters—Smolder Bravestone, Ruby Roundhouse, Franklin Finbar, and Professor Oberon—has unique abilities and weapons, but the differences between them are largely cosmetic. Whether you’re punching enemies, shooting them, or using gadgets, the combat system offers little challenge beyond maintaining a steady aim and surviving the occasional rush of foes. The jewel-carrying mechanic adds some tension, as holding the jewel for too long triggers strikes of lightning that harm the player, forcing teammates to pass it around. While this concept encourages cooperation, it often feels more like an inconvenience than a clever design choice. The game’s AI companions, when playing solo, also fail to offer meaningful support, which can make single-player sessions feel tedious and unbalanced. Visually, the game aims for a colorful, cartoonish aesthetic that mirrors the tone of the films, but its presentation feels dated. The environments, though inspired by the jungles and temples of Jumanji, lack the level of detail or visual variety that could bring them to life. Textures are flat, animations are stiff, and lighting effects are minimal. The characters resemble their cinematic counterparts to an extent, but without the expressive motion or charm that made them memorable on screen. The absence of the original cast’s voices further distances the game from its source material, and while the voice acting that replaces them is serviceable, it lacks the humor and charisma that define the Jumanji franchise. The overall effect is a world that feels empty and artificial, missing the sense of wonder and danger that should accompany an adventure through the unpredictable world of Jumanji. The sound design follows suit, doing little to elevate the experience. The soundtrack provides a generic backdrop of action themes that fade into the background, while the sound effects—gunfire, explosions, animal noises—feel repetitive after only a few missions. There is little variation in tone between tense combat moments and calmer exploration, leaving the pacing flat. Small touches, like environmental ambience or dynamic music cues, are noticeably absent, which contributes to the sense that the game’s world exists only as a static set piece. Perhaps the most disappointing aspect of Jumanji: The Video Game is its squandered potential in cooperative play. The framework for teamwork is there—each character has unique strengths that could theoretically complement one another—but the level design rarely demands coordination. Most encounters can be handled by simply shooting enemies as they appear, with little need for planning or communication. When played locally with friends, the simplicity can still produce moments of lighthearted fun, as the chaos and silliness of running through traps and enemy hordes lend themselves to laughter. However, the fun tends to come from the players’ own banter rather than the gameplay itself. Online multiplayer, meanwhile, suffers from unreliable matchmaking and a sparse player base, making it difficult to find consistent cooperative sessions. Without a solid group of friends to play with, the game quickly loses its appeal. The lack of meaningful progression further limits its longevity. While the game offers some cosmetic unlocks and minor stat improvements, there’s little incentive to replay levels once they’ve been completed. The four available maps, each with similar objectives and enemies, don’t offer enough diversity to keep the experience fresh. The game’s short runtime—only a few hours long—means it can be completed in a single sitting, and with no additional modes or story variations, there’s little reason to return. This might be acceptable for a budget-priced game, but even at its lower cost, it feels light on content for a licensed title carrying such a recognizable brand. Ultimately, Jumanji: The Video Game feels like a missed opportunity. The premise—a cooperative adventure where players must work together to survive a wild and unpredictable jungle—fits perfectly with the spirit of the franchise, but the execution never rises beyond mediocrity. The gameplay is repetitive, the visuals uninspired, and the sense of adventure that defines Jumanji is largely absent. It’s a game that may entertain younger players or families looking for a brief, uncomplicated cooperative experience, but for anyone expecting the energy, humor, and excitement of the films, it will likely feel hollow. With more variety, tighter mechanics, and a deeper sense of discovery, it could have been an enjoyable party game. As it stands, it’s a shallow adaptation that captures the look of Jumanji without ever finding its heart—a forgettable expedition into a world that should have been bursting with life. Rating: 5/10
