Platform Games
Platform games test how carefully you can move across platforms and avoid obstacles. Move from platform to platform, timing each move so you don’t fall or hit an obstacle.
The controls often use one or two buttons, but later levels add smaller landing areas or traps that are harder to avoid. One missed landing can send you back to the start.
From puzzle-filled levels and action-packed parkour to games built around swinging and rolling, every challenge gives you a new way to reach the finish. Play 250+ platform games on Poki and see how many levels you can beat!
