About Jetpack Joyride

This thrilling game originally launched for iOS devices in 2011, quickly gaining popularity and expanding to other platforms. Now, it can be enjoyed on all devices. The protagonist, Barry Steakfries, known from games like Monster Dash and Age of Zombies, steals a jetpack from a lab to embark on a worldwide adventure. Despite Barry's dubious actions, the game has won numerous awards and remained a top choice for players. As you fly with the jetpack, you must navigate past missiles and various obstacles.

You can currently download the game from the App Store, although certain items require in-app purchases. By subscribing to Apple Arcade, all content previously locked behind paywalls - such as the Coin Buster Pack, Coin Ultra Pack, Mysterious Reward, and various coins - becomes accessible for free.

Apple Arcade offers subscription plans, with a monthly cost of $4.99. New subscribers are granted a month-long free trial to test out the service. An annual subscription is priced at $49.99. In April 2021, Apple Arcade introduced a new category called "Timeless Classics," which features titles like Fruit Ninja, Cut the Rope, and Monument Valley. They also teased upcoming additions like Doodle God Universe, Angry Birds, and Alto's Odyssey.
