Jetpack Joyride+, developed by Halfbrick, is a free adrenaline-fueled endless runner game that will keep you hooked from the moment you start playing. From the creators of Fruit Ninja, this free arcade game takes you on a thrilling adventure with Barry Steakfries as he races through a lab, equipped with bullet-powered jetpacks and crazy vehicles.

Only available via Apple Arcade, Jetpack Joyride+ features a variety of exciting elements to keep you entertained. Fly the coolest jetpacks in gaming history and surf the wave-rider in all its glory. Complete daring missions to boost your rank and customize your look with ridiculous outfits.

An Apple Arcade exclusive

Jetpack Joyride+ offers basically the same addictive gameplay experience that the free-to-download version Jetpack Joyride delivers, but this Apple Arcade exclusive comes without in-app purchases, loot boxes, or any of the microtransaction opportunities the original has. You get to play the same lively protagonist, Barry Steakfries, in storming the lab and beating the scientists in reaching the end of it.

It also offers the opportunity to storm the lab in giant mechs and crazy vehicles, equipping high-tech gadgets and powerups along the way. Compete against friends, earn achievements, and test your reflexes with simple one-touch controls. Dodge lasers, zappers, and guided missiles as you collect coins and make millions of dollars. Funny one-liners and humorous dialogue are thrown into the mix, too, whenever Steakfries confronts a character.

The game plays out in a linear way, going from the left to the right side of the screen. You can equip your character with lots of different weapons and powerups to breeze through the enemies along the way or customize your avatar’s appearance with wacky costume options. However, while the endless arcade gameplay is overall fun, it can get repetitive down the line.

Fun and without the microtransactions

With its addictive gameplay, stunning visuals, and virtually endless fun, Jetpack Joyride+ is a must-play for all fans of arcade runner games. While a free, non-exclusive version of the game exists, this one is devoid of the in-app purchases and any loot boxes that may tempt players to spend more than necessary. It does not cut back on the fun and excitement, though, so it is still worth a shot.
