Bump 'N' Jump is an action racing game played from a top down point of view.

- The Sunday drive that turned into a nightmare on wheels!
- Introductions
- Story
- While enjoying a drive with your girlfriend in your car that you have named "Popper", you are attacked by a ruthless gang called Jackals.
- Your girlfriend is kidnapped by Jackals in their big off-road vehicle. The girl's pleading voice is heard to say "Help me!" as the vehicle speeds away.
- You, of course, must chase down the gang's getaway car, and when you meet up with these enemies, you will have to fight them anyway you can.
- You will try bumping with your own car, crashing into them, even leaping on top of them in the hope that they will be crushed. All this is necessary to save the girl and get her back!!
- Gameplay
- OVERVIEW
- Overhead-view survival racing game in which you must fight off enemy cars and jump over obstacles in order to progress to the next level
- Because of the bird's eye view, players cannot see the large obstacles until it is too late to jump, so the game displays a flashing exclamation point when the large obstacles are about to appear.
- Control speed and manage enemies
- Adding a level of complexity, the NES version of the game also requires that players pick up cans of gasoline that are interspersed throughout each course, as their car uses up fuel steadily throughout the game if the car goes too fast.
- Not much here huh?
