‘Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth’ — that’s what my Mum used to always say when I complained that the totally rubbish jumper my Gran bought me for Christmas was itchy/ugly/three sizes too small. Well, today Halfbrick has given us a gift horse — Jetpack Joyride — but it’s a bit of a stallion. No need to go near this one’s mouth — just ignore this utterly pointless intro and download it before they change their minds!
Jetpack Joyride is one of my favourite iOS games of the year. It doesn’t quite top Collision Effect for me — but gift horses… mouths. Jetpack Joyride is compulsive, instantly fun and has a meta-game that kept me coming back like my Gran at the pokies after buying me a rubbish jumper for Christmas.
Go get it!

iOS Game of the Year for me.

Tuesday, December 20, 2011 at 9:48 AMIf only I had had $0.99 worth of fun with that game before it went free.
For some reason I had more than that, so now I don’t know if I’ve come out ahead or I’ve been burnt rather well.

It’s that good.
