On September 30th aka today, the Jump Rope Challenge game will be leaving Nintendo eShop. It’s a free, fun, and easy way to get your body moving.
By using a pair of Joy-Con™ controllers and imagining them as the handles of a jump rope, players can virtually jump rope every day. With hopping bunnies as the characters, simple menus, and no long tutorials to jump through, it’s a quick and easy way to learn the ropes.
There are also a number of familiar in-game outfits to try out.This simple game was created by Nintendo developers looking to get active at home while using their Nintendo Switch.
Did you give Jump Rope Challenge a fair shot?
About Jump Rope Challenge
Can you skip 100 times a day?
Take an active break in your day with Jump Rope Challenge, free for Nintendo Switch! Hold both Joy-Con controllers* in your hands and jump while moving your arms, as if you’re exercising with a skipping rope!
The on-screen rabbit will reflect your movements, allowing your jumps to be counted, and you can also record how many times you’ve jumped each day. By moving your hands and jumping at the right time, your score will increase.
A daily total of 100 jumps is the goal – and that’s where the ‘challenge’ part comes in, as each player’s scores can be saved and challenged again and again. You can also pass a Joy-Con to someone else and jump together, where the total score counts both players’ successful jumps!
If you’re concerned about making too much noise, simply just bending your knees or moving your arms are also available ways to jump rope and get your body moving.
Jump Rope Challenge was created by a small group of Nintendo developers at home, to encourage exercise breaks at home. Who’s the best skipper in your family? Now you can find out!
