Jason Paul Arcade Run

Freerunner Jason Paul goes a 2D journey as he recreates his favourite computer games, with a twist.

Ever wanted to be a video game hero? Jason Paul did. The world-renowned freerunner grew up on a diet of Prince of Persia and dreamed of defeating Jaffar and releasing his princess. Soon he was leaping scenery just like a real video game character might as a full-fledged parkour athlete, but he never actually became the 2D hero of his dreams – at least not until now!
Jason Paul Arcade Run sees him jump blocks and fight his adversaries just like in an ’80s platformer. He even has to defeat a boss.
But where’s the twist in the game? Watch till the end to find out!
