Jimmy Pataya is a unique and interesting iPhone game with a skydiving theme.  In the game, you play Jimmy, who enjoys jumping out of airplanes (pick me up later).  Your job is to guide tilt Jimmy left or right to various degrees to help him avoid hitting solid platforms on his rapid vertical descent.  The game is challenging, fast-paced, and put together quite well.  This game reminds me of some very classic cellphone gamine, and reminds me in some ways of the classic Nokia game “SkyDive” – only updated, and thoroughly modernized.


The game features rich, bright graphics that are energizing and fun to look at.  This game is at least as interesting visually as it is to play.  The game is difficult enough to be challenging, but not so difficult that you get frustrated and want to give up.  It seems to maintain that important balance of fun and challenge.

Also noteworthy is the fact that this game is built under OpenFeint. OpenFeint allows you to share thoughts about the game, as well as your game scores with other players.  It’s free to participate in and extremely easy to use (any for those naysayers, it is also completely optional) and, in my opinion, really enriches the overall gaming experience.

In conclusion, Jimmy Pataya is a well-built game that is visually appealing, fun, and fast-paced.  I enjoyed reviewing it, and I hope that you will find it interesting and enjoyable.  To learn more about Jimmy Pataya, or to purchase it, then follow the iTunes link here: Jimmy Pataya.
