We go hands on with Jetpack Joyride for BlackBerry 10

By James Richardson on 9 Mar 2013 12:06 pm

It was only a few days ago that we announced that Jetpack Joyride was now available to download for BlackBerry 10 and what a beauty it is. The game has been huge on other platforms for some time now so it's rather encouraging that yet another BIG game has made its way over to BlackBerry.

With the game being free you don't really have an excuse not to download it. It's action packed, has great graphics and sound and I suspect it will be just as popular with us here on BlackBerry 10 as it has been with the likes of the iPhone.

With many regions around the world still waiting on the arrival of the BlackBerry Z10 I suggest you take a look at the video and put this one at the top of your list of games to download as soon as you get your new sexy BlackBerry.

Update: After being pulled due to laggy performance, Jetpack Joyride is again available on BlackBerry World. Enjoy!

It says it's not available for my device. Is this app only available in certain countries or from certain carriers?

sanjk1 Mar 9, 2013 at 12:21 pm

I'm getting the same problem with my device not being supported. UK phones not getting this yet?

Same here, in the UK. But says it's unavailable for download!

I got it before it was pulled. It crashes when you grab a vehicle power up. I assume they are in the process of fixing and re releasing.

BLAZEDv3 Mar 9, 2013 at 12:35 pm

Yup still not up.

I downloaded this before it was removed from App World. Looks nice, but sometimes lags for a moment every second game. I'm guessing this is why it was pulled, so improvements can be made

James Richardson Mar 9, 2013 at 1:08 pm

This is rather odd as I downloaded it with no problems and I'm in the UK.

I shall investigate.

Weird. Now showing as not available for this device even though I have it installed. * Confused *

Got it before it was pulled.

Doesn't crash, lags a bit every so often.

Also it can't find leader board.

I still can't stop playing.

Z10, PlayBook, 9810, 9000.

DjDante Mar 9, 2013 at 1:22 pm

I have it but I find it to be a bit choppy. Much smoother on the playbook

What the heck, it did get pulled from BlackBerry World... I was able to get it before they pulled it down, and while I love the game it was lagging a bit every once in a while. Hopefully they're just fixing that issue and putting it back up soon.

Yup... Playbook version is better. Needs work. Oh well, still fun.

Argggg.. not available on my device. As James said.. we'll dig into it. Annoying! I want to play now.

Nice review though. Great game.

scott0121 Mar 9, 2013 at 2:07 pm

I can't download it either, I'm on Vodafone UK with the Z1010, it just keeps saying unavailable for this device. Does anybody know when we will be getting for our devices over here in the UK?

NOBODY ELSE NEEDS TO POST IT'S UNAVAILABLE FOR THEM.
IT IS N/A FOR EVERYONE TEMPORARILY.

ddlax22 Mar 9, 2013 at 2:34 pm

does it take forever to start up like on the playbook?

DjDante Mar 9, 2013 at 3:26 pm

@ddlax. Yes it does. You will think it wouldn't.

Posted via CB10

elite1 Mar 9, 2013 at 4:46 pm

Yes does take long, but still not as long as PlayBook imo.

I've got it on my phone yesterday in UK but it kept on lagging every lil while which is a shame as it runs smooth on PlayBook.

Downloaded this app yesterday before it disappeared on BlackBerry World on my Z10. After a few rounds of play it started to lag and run slow, so I think they pulled it to sort the problem out. I have since found out that it is available on the PlayBook so I have since loaded it up on there and it works much, much better than the Z10. Hopefully they will sort it out quickly so that it can be loaded again on the Z10.

ukmight Mar 9, 2013 at 6:08 pm

I downloaded it... and then I reset to factory settings thinking I could download again from BB World. But later on surprised to find it as unavailable.

zsarasa Mar 9, 2013 at 10:46 pm

darkehawke Mar 10, 2013 at 6:38 am

it lags a lot and isnt as smooth as playbook version.
as others have said, maybe thats why it was pulled?

neg0sheate Mar 10, 2013 at 7:00 am

I have it on ps3, the game play is much faster and it picks up speed as u go along my son love it

marvini Mar 10, 2013 at 9:45 am

I love this game on my PlayBook and was very excited when it appeared in blackberry world. Downloaded it right away. Was very disappointed when I played it as it is very buggy on the Z10. Hopefully it was pulled from BlackBerry world to address the bugs.
