It costs more to prevent ads, there is less variety in worlds, and the gameplay of the sequel is terrible. It’s not bad, but it is not nearly as much fun as the original game. I’d give the game 4-5 stars if they fixed black holes, difficulty easing, and scoring. I suspect that scoring is scaled down 10x but it seems so unnecessary. I will say im not the best at the original but I’ve scored over 200k and 100k a handful of times where in this game 2 minutes of playing gets to the difficulty seen around 10 minutes of playing the original. The original eases into difficulty way better than this one which just throws you in the deep end where a skilled player can die in the first 500. The amount of traps that occur all at once is ridiculous for a fast moving game. The new platforms are cool but can be too much all at once. I definitely won’t be shelling out $5 to get rid of ads on this game. Additionally due to a higher level of difficulty games end much sooner and there’s ads after every game.

Black holes seem to get you from a much further distance, platforms are easier to miss, jumps don’t feel as uniform, and the most frustrating thing is that jet packs drop you at the bottom of the screen where it’s tough to catch a platform. It took a bit to adjust to the height gaining difference which was ok but the game mechanics are so frustrating in this version. I’ve been playing regular doodle jump for a while and was excited to try this version. Again, I am enjoying Doodle Jump 2, I think it could just use some improvements so it functions as well as the other versions of Doodle Jump. I also have a question about the final gold mine level: Why don’t the gold nuggets that you collect accumulate like the stars and other items in the other versions of Doodle Jump, like the Christmas and Batman ones? Those games allow you to accumulate the things you collect in order to purchase various things, like power-ups and different characters & outfits.

And when you get a magnet, it doesn’t draw the stars to you, as it does in the other versions, they seem to do absolutely nothing. First, whenever you get a propeller hat, a jet pack or a rocket, as you fly upward and pass by stars, you don’t collect them as you would in the other versions, you just go right past them. I have been enjoying Doodle Jump 2, but I have found a few things that don’t seem to work the same way as the other Doodle Jump versions. Really like Doodle Jump 2, except for a few things
