About this game

Jelly River Crossing is a free hop-across arcade game for kids ages 6-8. A bouncy pink jelly starts at the bottom of the screen and hops lane by lane past busy roads and a flowing river until it reaches the far side. Every finished crossing counts toward a personal best.

Roads carry streams of cars to dodge, while the river can only be crossed by riding wide, slow boats. Grass strips between hazards give safe places to pause and plan. Three hearts forgive early slips, and each crossing makes traffic a little faster, so the challenge grows with the player.

The game loads straight in the browser on tablets, phones and computers, with zero ads, accounts or installs. It suits kids who love quick reflex games with clear rules, short rounds and a friendly, forgiving difficulty curve.

How to play

  1. Tap the side of the jelly you want to hop toward, use the on-screen arrows, or press the arrow keys.
  2. Cross the roads between cars - grass rows are always safe.
  3. Hop onto a boat to ride across the river; open water costs a heart.
  4. Reach the top bank to score a crossing and start a faster one.
  5. Keep going until the three hearts run out, then beat your best score.
