About this game

Jazz Jackrabbit follows Jazz, the hero of the rabbit planet Carrotus, as he searches for the kidnapped rabbit princess Eva Earlong and opposes the turtle terrorist leader Devan Shell.

Jazz travels across different planets, gathering clues and liberating worlds from Shell’s tyranny. His speed increases as he runs, while shooter-focused gameplay lets him battle enemies with weapons including a blaster, grenade launcher, flamethrower, and TNT.

Power-ups include a force shield, a hoverboard that lets Jazz float through the air, and a bird companion that fights alongside him.
