Monkey 3 Jump
A monkey never falls from the tree — at least not while you tap in time.
About This Game
A monkey never falls from the tree — at least not while you tap in time. In this retro green-screen runner, drawn in four shades of pixel, the monkey dashes along the branches by itself and your only job is to jump. Chain up to three jumps in mid-air — boing, boing, boing! Land on any branch and all three come back; touch the ground and the run is over. The monkey is already running on a long, safe branch when you arrive, and the course begins with your first jump.
The branches come at every height: flat hops, stairs up, drops down, short stubs in a row, optional high branches, and wide gaps that need a second jump in mid-air. A blinking banana marks where to tap again, and a thin twig under some of those gaps catches a jump that falls short. Your score is the number of bananas you collect — a single banana is 1, and a bunch is worth the 2 to 5 it shows, though bunches tend to hang in riskier spots, up on high bonus branches or down in low dips near the ground. When the ground flashes and the warning beeps, a spare jump can still pull you out, and a last-moment rescue earns a SAVE! Nearly every gap takes just one or two jumps, so keep the third as a lifeline. The course gets gradually faster and tighter, then the speed levels off.
Game Tips
- 🪂 Nearly every gap takes one or two jumps — save the third as your lifeline
- 🍌 On a wide gap, tap again right where the blinking banana is
- 🚨 Mashing wastes height — even when the ground flashes, make each tap count
