JETPACK JOYRIDE REVIEW

A Halfbrick’s Masterpiece

Jetpack Joyride is a mobile phone application developed by Halfbrick - who also developed Fruit Ninja - that was primarily sold at $0.99 but now comes for free. Nowadays, many smartphone users find it very addicting, because it is not only fun, but explicitly simple as well. Controlling the game is easy – you’ll just decide whether or not to tap the screen. Collecting coins, avoiding electrical fences, and purchasing upgrades – that’s basically how the world of Jetpack Joyride goes. The game is also created with difficult missions, goals, and other interesting add-ons to make your few minutes of game play one of the most thrilling moments of your life.

GAMEPLAY

As mentioned above, the Jetpack Joyride game is very simple – it takes only a single tap anywhere on the screen to make the character fly to a certain distance.

When you let go of the screen, the character will fall slowly. Once you hit one of the electric fences along the way, a round will immediately end. There are also collectable coins as you go, which you can stock up and then use later for purchasing upgrades. To let you transform, certain attachments will show once in every mission. These attachments include the dragon, stomper, bird suit, low-rider bike, and many more.

The main goal of the game is to make the character fly as high as possible without falling and dying. When you use an attachment, touching an electric fence will return you into the jetpack outfit, thus allow you to move on with the round. As you go along, you will also find spin tokens. Collecting these tokens will give you chances of spinning a slot machine at the end of each round. The more spin tokens you collect, the more chances of spinning you will get. Winning in the slot machine can give you various helpful stuffs including coin multipliers, rockets, and in-game boosters which can help you advance 750 meters ahead on your next mission.

GAME REWARDS AND IN-GAME CURRENCY PURCHASING

The Jetpack Joyride’s official currency is measured in coins.

Also called as stash during gameplay, the coin allows you to purchase in-game items such as clothing, utilities, jetpacks, and vehicle upgrades. These items are somewhat expensive, but if you play often, you’ll be able to earn coins fast. Another option you can use to get ahead is purchasing in-game currencies, which cost around $0.99 and $4.99, depending on the amount you wish to buy.

IN-GAME EXPERIENCE ON DEVICE

Most universal apps are easier to use on iPad simply because it has a wider screen. This also applies to Jetpack Joyride. So for those people who want a more enjoyable and satisfying gaming experience, playing this app on iPad is highly recommended.

CONCLUSION
