Is Jungle Book, The still worth playing in 2026?
A platformer from Virgin drawn from the Disney cartoon, The Jungle Book moves Mowgli through lush levels populated by the film's characters, between jumping, throwing fruit and collecting gems. The shimmering art direction and the careful animation, the studio's hallmarks, elevate the machine, and the level design stays solid though sometimes demanding. The visual charm carries the whole. For a retro platforming fan, a Disney fan or someone curious about handsome 8 bit productions, the title keeps a definite visual appeal and pleasure.
