Jetpack Joyride introduces a “Back to the Future” update

I’ll admit that over the years Jetpack Joyride has been one of my favorite time wasters. There’s something semi-addicting about the game and it makes for a great way to kill time when waiting around in line at a doctor/dentist appointment, or just when I have a few minutes to kill. How appropriate then that it’s latest update is blending in one of my other personal favorite things, the Back to the Future franchise.

The new update introduces levels based off of Hill Valley, vehicles like the DeLorean Time Machine and the hoverboard, and plenty of new outfits and in-game collectibles. When it comes to gameplay, honestly very little has changed here. That said, it is a fun dose of nostalgia and could at least revitalize interest among those that have played Jetpack Joyride to death.

The video introducing the update is also pretty humorous, for what it is worth. What do you think of Jetpack Joyride’s latest update? Still enjoy the game, or do you wish they’d create a proper sequel with improved (and/or different) gameplay mechanics? Let us know what you think in the comments.
