JUMANJI THE CURSE OF JUMANJI Across the valley of Jumanji lies the Jaguar Shrine where the sacred Jewel of Jumanji rests in the eye of the jaguar stature, protecting the jungle from evil. Anyone who takes the jewel will be overtaken by darkness, and a curse will be set on the jungle. When the jewel is stolen, the four teenagers are challenged to return it to its rightful place and lift the curse. In order to find the shrine they must use an incomplete map, riddled clues, and their strengths to return the jewel and defat the game.

HOW TO SURVIVE JUMANJI Utilize Your Skill Set Each avatar in Jumanji has their own unique set of strengths and weaknesses. No player’s skill set is the same, so they must rely on each other to survive.
Protect Your Three Lives Each player starts the game with three lives, indicated by a tattoo of three lines on their arms. The stakes are raised as the players realise if they die in the game, they die in real life.
