Hey guys, I really enjoyed the game Jet Pack Joyride, but most of all I enjoyed the objectives that made me want to keep playing until I completed all objectives. I already have Tiny Wings and Off the Leash, are there any other games that have this similar "Objective" style gameplay that are good?? Thanks
Check out Blot. Here's TA's review: http://toucharcade.com/2012/02/01/blot-review/ Awesome game. I think it's exactly what you're looking for too.
It's not out yet but there is a Mega Jump sequel which I think is called Mega Dash or Mega Run which is basically a clone of Jetpack Joyride.
Try Necrorun... One of the best runners for me. There isnt as much objectives, but it has them, and it has great art and controls. Smoothest gameplay too.
Just realized it was freaking third on the paid charts, behind only ABS and DS. Was really interested in in it a few days ago when it launched, but ended up passing it up. Definitely time to get it. Downloading. You can't ever have enough endless runners. Edit: Enjoying it greatly so far. I'm a fan of endless runners. This feels like a nice mix of Canabalt and Jetpack Joyride. The premise is ridiculous, heh. I really, really wish Chillingo would stop using Crystal though. It's just so awful and outdated. No way to access GC through the game, and I'll always be Played229832366 (actual numbers). Annoying as hell.
I agree with a couple of the others above. Madcoaster and Blot! are both great games. I recommend both.
A lot of people adore Whale Trail but I don't, I prefer JJ and Blot. Still have to give a spin to Mighty Fin and Madcoaster, they look really fun
here is a list games that have mission/objective based gameplay like jetpack joyride (not all of them are endless runners) Magic Stache Zombie Carnival Escape from Age of Monsters Light the Night Bank Job Zombie Ace Glow Bugs Subway Surf Madcoaster Jetpack Joyride Extintion Squad Ski Safari Aby Escape Off the Leash Nuts! NomNom Skylanders Cloud Patrol Sea Stars Snake Race Bull Mouse Jaws Revenge Darkness Rush Tiny Wings Hanging with Friends Sky Gnomes Charadium II message back some more if im missing some enjoy!
One game that has a lot in common with Jetpack Joyride is Zombie Ace as a flyer/runner. But I've liked it even more because there's quite a bit to do. A little too unbalanced due to IAPs, but fun even without them. This week's Zombie Carnaval and Mega Run are also fantastic, but if you're looking for something closer to JJ, Zombie Ace may be your ticket. Of course there's plenty of older goodies many of which ramon31 already listed.
Yes, there are free ways to get "brains" but it is ashame that the game isn't more balanced than others in the IAPs. Games like Mega Run and Subway Surfers are both freemium and still manage to feel more complete in the upgrade system (without having to get IAPs) than Zombie Ace, which was originally a "paid" game at $.99. Still one of the deeper JJ-style games out there.
I am really enjoying Sky Gnomes, which has the same objective system and tons of upgrades in the context of...er I guess you would call it a racer, but it isnt really. It may still be free, so check it out ASAP.
