7/10
When you go trick-or-treating, you don't come back 100 percent with candy you love. There's some bleh stuff mixed in, stuff that you put up with to get to the candy you can't wait to eat. That's a perfect analog for Pumpkin Jack. You'll push past parts of it because this mascot platformer has some really great qualities. And, when viewed as a whole, a bucket full of candy ain't so bad.

8/10
Pumpkin Jack's delightful NPCs, boss battles, visuals and music outweigh the clunky platforming and uninspired combat. This is the perfect game to ignite your Halloween Spirit.

7/10
Pumpkin Jack is a fun and nostalgic title that is perfectly placed to be your Halloween game this year. Highly recommended for any fans of old school platforming adventures, but also worth checking out for the spookier sorts too. It doesn't revolutionise anything, but it also doesn't outstay its welcome, and the fact that it is the work of a solo developer makes it even more impressive. This particular pumpkin deserves to carve out some of your seasonal gaming time.

Sweet and Short 3D Platformer
Not exactly the most challenging experience but the gameplay is fun and can be beat within 6 hours. I like short games that get straight to the point. The only letdown was the ending. Was that supposed to be a cliffhanger? It felt so empty and meaningless...

Old School Fun
Pumpkin Jack is a surprisingly fun 3D platformer! It takes clear inpiration from The Nightmare Before Christmas, even including a rivalry between Jack and Santa, but honestly, it was charming either way. Even though the gameplay can be a bit simple, it's a game that harkens back to the early days of platformers with a hint of hack-and-slash thrown in. What I loved more than anything else though is the game's amazing art style that paired well with it's surprisingly incredible soundtrack. If you're a fan of games like Spyro or Banjo Kazooie, then you'll surely love this 6-7 hour spooky adventure!
