Play Overview

Rog & Roll is a running and jumping game where you fight enemies and avoid traps. Unusually, you play a former henchman on a quest to save his friends from re-emerging tyranny. It features retro-inspired graphics and a humorous story where characters know they are in a video game and must fight to avoid falling back into stereotypical behaviour.

Play involves jumping over gaps and dodging enemies while defeating foes and collecting coins and secrets throughout. There are some sections where you play from a top-down perspective, but most of the time, you play from a side-on view in a homage to games such as Sonic and Mario. You encounter a variety of unique enemy types, from sentient trees to huge frogs, and face off against bosses and minions alike.

It's a unique gaming experience that allows you to play through a self-referential and comedic platforming game that offers a fresh challenge and will appeal to fans of old and new platforming games.
