Platformer Games

Platformers are all about running and jumping: time your moves, avoid spikes and reach the exit. Levels start easy and quickly get tricky. Jump into Bob The Robber 2, Dan the Man and BFDIA 5b: 5*30 or any of our 17 platformer games.

How to choose platformer games

Platformers come down to running, jumping and timing. Levels usually start gentle and add spikes, moving platforms and tricky gaps as you go, so expect to retry sections a few times. Most use the arrow keys or WASD to move with space or up to jump; holding the jump key a little longer often gives a higher leap.
