[PS4] Review of GeoJelly | PS4Blog.net

Source Byte’s GeoJelly is a vibrant and engaging platformer where your main mission is to leap your way to freedom, escaping a treacherous lab environment. As you delve deeper into our GeoJelly review, you’ll uncover the intricate journey awaiting you!

In GeoJelly, it’s not just about getting out of the lab. Once you’ve maneuvered past the lab, you’ll find yourself in a basement that requires its own escape plan. Progressing further, the game challenges you to outwit the factory’s obstacles. Naturally, the ultimate goal is to explore beyond the factory walls. Across more than 50 increasingly complex levels, your jumping skills will be put to the test.

At the start, the game eases you in, letting you master the basics over the initial levels. You’ll have control over your blob character using either the left analog stick or the D-Pad, helping you navigate left or right as you gauge the trajectory and strength of each jump. This is key since avoiding hazards while collecting diamonds along your path is crucial. Although these diamonds unlock further levels, there’s more than enough of them scattered throughout. For completionists, nabbing every single diamond offers that extra challenge!

As for rewards, GeoJelly does include a full trophy list, boasting a coveted Platinum trophy. You’ll encounter a mix of one Bronze, one Silver, and a whopping 11 Gold trophies to aim for. Some of the tasks you’ll encounter on your trophy hunt involve making a total of 100, 1,000, and 5,000 jumps, escaping each significant area like the lab and basement, and strategizing to complete levels without a single death. And who doesn’t love a few secret objectives tucked in for good measure?

Returning to the essence of GeoJelly, this platformer is all about escaping various treacherous settings, starting from the lab. Each level gets progressively trickier, offering simplicity that harks back to old-school mobile games with streamlined controls. Your overall enjoyment may vary, as it often depends on your taste for minimalist gaming experiences. You can pick up GeoJelly on PlayStation 5 for $10.49, or opt for its PlayStation 4 counterpart at $10.99, sold separately.

For those eager to jump into this colorful escapade, let GeoJelly on the PlayStation 5 entertain your platforming skills and test your strategic maneuvers. Happy gaming!
