Jetpack Joyride belongs to the simple “hold the button down to fly over obstacles” genre, but it’s got plenty of addictive hooks through its mission structure and unlockable items. It also plays clever homage to other games in the genre with vehicles scattered throughout the game’s neverending laboratory. [App Store]
