Pumpkin Jack

About

Pumpkin Jack is a 3D platformer where you play as a sentient jack-o-lantern waging war on light. Battle through cursed forests, haunted castles, and twisted candy lands as you collect souls and crush enemies with pumpkin-based attacks. The controls feel tight despite occasional floaty jumps, and each level pushes you to balance exploration with combat. You’ll swing from vines, roll through traps, and fight bosses that mix gothic flair with absurdist humor. The game’s charm lies in its visuals and voice work. The cartoonish art style pops with color, and the snarky owl companion delivers jokes that land better than most AAA efforts. While Metacritic scores hover around 70, players praise the creativity of level design and the joy of chucking explosive gourds at skeletons. It’s a short ride, around six hours, but the spooky soundtrack and quirky dialogue stick around. Available on every major console and PC, it’s a solid pick for fans of lighthearted action with a dash of witchcraft.
