Episodes are tied by a single storyline usually progressing after each episode is finished. The final level of every episode features a boss that the player must deal with in order to complete the level. Each episode has three planets (worlds), with every planet itself consisting of two levels (some planets have an additional secret level).

The initial game is divided into six episodes (with three more episodes added subsequently). Jazz is depicted as a bright green jackrabbit with a red bandana, bracers and a blue 'blaster' gun. As Jazz travels through different worlds, he gains new weapons and meets new enemies in his pursuit to rescue the princess and save Carrotus from Devan Shell and his army of Turtle Terrorists. In response, the king chooses to send Carrotus' hero Jazz Jackrabbit, who carries a blue LFG-2000 gun, to various planets conquered by Devan that might contain clues to the location of Eva's imprisonment. Enraged by his loss, Devan decides to kidnap Carrotus princess Eva Earlong and hide her on a distant airbase of unknown location to weaken the hares. One of such planets, Carrotus, is home to a peaceful hare kingdom that, once confronted by Shell, is able to provide enough resistance to fend him off. An evil mastermind tortoise named Devan Shell begins conquering planets, suppressing any native confrontation. The game is set in a fantasy world based on Aesop's 'The Tortoise and the Hare', in which the enmity between tortoises and hares continues even after three thousand years.
