I downloaded the shareware version of this game to try it out and found it to be very addicting! My kids (ages 5, 8 and 10) stand by like vultures waiting for their turn on the game! So here I am buying the full version so we can enjoy all the levels in this game!
Cool!A bunny who thinks he's terminator!

This game rocks!I don't own it, so I don't know the storyline, but I still think this rocks.I have never played the original, but that goes to show that you don't need to play a series in order to have fun.The fun part is killing the enemies.There are no puzzles, just enemies and bosses.The enemies vary.For example, in level 1, dungeon dilemna, there are just turtles.In the next level there are turtles and bats, not to mention the boss, the queen.There are 2 characters,Jazz and Spaz.Jazz can use helicopter ears (to slow down his fall, not to fly) and Spaz can double jump (although it's too bad to be worth it).As well as choosing one at the start, there is a power up (and cheat) that let's you change in mid-level.Nice choice of weapons as well.There are some monsters, altough they're not scary.In the hare-scare level there are ghosts with knives.The next level, a cold day in heck, is a snowy landscape where the enemies are the hounds of the baskervilles,skeletons,and toucans.The boss is the devil.The next 3 levels are the last.They are set in Hell.The enemies are the same with the addition of more devils.The game boss is a dragon.
We miss this great game

We had this game in DOS on our old computer. We have been trying for over a year to replace it. It is hard to find. I placed an order in November and was promised 1-2 week delivery. Now cannot track it and it is listed unavailable. This was a great game for the kids and their grandma(me) with bonus rounds and levels that even I could manage. Never mind the higher levels. Too challenging for an old lady. That is ok. I could stay on the lower levels and let the kids take the challenges. Humorous. Loved the graphics and the way the bunny talked back to you when you took too long. Highly recommend.
ahhhhhhmazing

IT IS SO COOL, once you try it you're hooked!
Well, we always knew that MOVIE sequels were a bad idea...

If you have ever played the original Jazz Jackrabbit, like me, this game is pretty lame. The animation's worse, which is stupid since the original was a DOS program. The music's not as fun, and is totally absent in many places. Spaz should have been left out. The ammo capacity is too low: show too much of a preference for any bullet other than the default, and you're apt to run out when the designers decide not to put as much in the level you're playing... which, since many ammo containers seem keyed to what you already have, means that you may never get it again. All the interesting stats shown at a level's completion (like percentage of goodies gotten) is gone, as is the final step of shooting a sign to finish the level. Speaking of sign-shooting, what happened to fun bonus levels (where you had to find and shoot the sign to get in), like the land of the protector birds? Although even the protector birds aren't as good: the gun barrels above the beak are ugly and pointless, and the fun challenge of trying to make them last through as many levels as you can is gone. Even the menus have lost some coolness-in Jazz Jackrabbit, the menus worked with your computer's clock, so if it was Christmas (for example), it would be snowing and a picture of Jazz would be wearing a Santa hat.
And what is left? The multiplayer's decent, but the modes grow old fast. At least half the levels are a poor rehash of the original (the castle looks like the original Medivo with a few changes), and most of the rest are full-on ripped off from bonus episodes, with little difference even in the enemies you fight. Unless you consider giant purple carrots that get in the way as you walk "original," go for the first game... or, if you can't find it, buy Duke Nukem II, which is of similar caliber and heavily influenced (dare I say that the designers copied?) many gameplay features.
We always knew that movie sequels could be pretty darn bad...I just didn't know that computer game sequels could be so disappointing.
Make way for the green bunny!

I used to play the origional Jazz Jackrabbit when I was little, and I had so much fun! But now it seems that we can't find the game. But I just recently downloaded this game, and I'm having a blast. It's so much fun to play, and Spaz is absolutely hillarious. People who have never played Jazz will love it.
Jazz totally rocks!!!!

When I was little, I played the Jazz games, and I LOVED it.( I am still playing them.)
The game is approprate for ages 5+.(Very funny with some violence.)
As an added feature, the game's makers even added a feature which lets you play online with others.
The two Jazz games are definately classics!
