“Pumpkin Jack is an extremely mid game - it does what it does well, which is not much. As a 3D platformer and collectathon, it's pretty decent. There's platforming, exploration, combat and some puzzles, with no area…”
“I don't know where should I start to be honest. This game felt me something different that other games couldn't do despite, I was just playing a 3D platforming indie game. I never imagined I could enjoy about this game.…”
“Game definitely looks pretty, but the gameplay feels dull and repetitive to me. There isn't really too much a focus on the 3D-Platforming bits. They exist to supplement the combat. In that sense they are good enough.…”

“Delightful little hack'n'slash with alright writing, janky combat and okay platforming. It's not hard, it's not long, but it's exactly the palette cleanser you might need from playing and 100% other longer titles.”
“Cute little RPG, very simple controls, evil triumphs. Great for a "turn off my brain" sort of gaming experience while still having collectibles for the completionists like me. :) Loved the fandom easter eggs in the…”
“Very fun platforming with a delightful world and hilarious characters! The Crow (whomst I named Kevin) is the best companion, I love him!”

“Delightful platformer with old school Playstation vibes. I do think $30 USD feels a touch high, maybe pick it up on a nice sale :) It took me 7.4 hours to complete on controller (I'm not always good at remembering to…”
“A short, simple and enjoyable 3D platformer that was clearly made with a lot of love - everything feels nice to play and pretty polished. None of the gameplay mechanics overstay their welcome and there's a bunch of new…”
“Feels like Crash Bandicoot games. Very easy, the game holds your hand at all times. Can be 100%'d in 5-6 hrs”

“Game is decent for what it is. It's short, and well done in a genre that's becoming rare as of recent. A few interesting mini games to break up the platforming sections. There are some annoying camera angles and some…”

“Its a good game with a lot of problems. It has everything, new mechanics every chapter, cutsneces, voice acting, combat, platforming. But it falls short on the main gameplay. The movement is too floaty for a precision…”
“I would've loved this game as a kid. Now the game is a bit too short and simplistic for my taste but it was enjoyable enough to recommend. The combat is alright, though not as tight as I had hoped, the artstyle creates…”

“too short and the weapon variety doesnt matter”
“It's not the best game in the world, but I would give it a thumbs up, since it doesn't do much wrong. But you could also argue that it doesn't do that much at all. It has only 6 Levels and the level mechanics tend to…”

“Short but sweet 3D action platformer. It's surprsingly well done, so much diversity for such a short game. There so many different mini-games, each level has a different atmosphere and a different weapon you can play with. The story is fun and giggle worthy at times. The…”
— a player, Steam review · 4 hrs played“I have to say, I went into Pumpkin Jack with pretty big expectations. From the very first glance, it was obvious the game had a very interesting theme and visual design. The Halloween aesthetic immediately caught my attention, so of course I had to give it a try. As always, I’ll…”
