Category:Lucky Luke Franchise

Lucky Luke is a long running Franco-Belgian comic book series about the titular cowboy who "shoots faster than his own shadow" and is always accompanied by his trusted horse Jolly Jumper. Most of Luke's time is spend chasing after the Dalton Brothers and other outlaws, as well as helping historical and fictional characters, while sarcastic, genre-savyy Jolly Jumper not only has to rescue Luke all the time but also cooks, goes fishing and plays chess with his cowboy (he cheats). Jolly Jumper is a parody of the "Wonder Horse" in old western movies that were often portrayed to have human-like intelligence and were trained to do astonishing tricks. The series spawned several movies and TV series, both animated and live action, as well as quite a few video games. Most of them include Jolly Jumper, sometimes using his fourth-wall breaking abilities as a way of instructing the player.

List of Games
(incomplete, WIP) Please add if you have information about which games feature Jolly Jumper and/or other notable horse content or those that are not interesting from an equine perspective:

Lucky Luke: Nitroglycerin (1987 DOS, C64 and others): This game shamefully does not feature Jolly Jumper. It is mostly a shooter with a bit of walking around.

Lucky Luke (1996 Game Boy, 1999 Game Boy Color): Includes a level where Luke and Jolly chase after a train, another takes place on a driving stage coach and kicking horses are dangerous obstacles during the jump 'n' run parts. Probably the most "horsey" game for the original Game Boy released outside of Japan.

Lucky Luke: The Video Game (1996 Philips CD-i)

Lucky Luke (1997 DOS, SNES; remade for the GBA as Lucky Luke: Wanted in 2001): Platformer with some levels that include riding. The game also introduced a mini-game where Lucky Luke and Jolly Jumper have a arm/hoof-wrestling match.

Lucky Luke: Desperado Train (2000 GBC): Platformer. Includes a level where you play as Jolly Jumper, as well as mini games like horse shoe pitching.

Lucky Luke: Wanted (2001 GBA) remake of Lucky Luke (1997).

Lucky Luke: Sur le piste de Daltons (On the Dalton's trail) (1998 PS1, 2000 PC)

Lucky Luke: Le fievre du ouest (2001 PC) seems to be mostly a shooter but with Jolly Jumper as the mentor.

Lucky Luke: Le fil qui chante (2004 PC): Adventure/mini games with quite a lot of horses.
