VIDEO: One of the best iPhone games is now totally free (for the time being)

You just have to sell a little part of your soul to Facebook, but that’s nothing, right?

Familiar with Jetpack Joyride? It’s similar to what I was talking about yesterday, about iOS games that don’t break new ground, and are hardly a contender to one of the better offerings you’ll find on a DS or the like, yet are still fun little distractions, great for short bursts, when you need something to keep you occupied while waiting for the subway, or while on the can.

Anyhow, here’s what the game looks like…

Again, it’s nothing mind-blowing, but it’s oddly addictive nonetheless. Oh also, it’s totally free! Granted, the usual asking price of a dollar was hardly anything, but times are also tough, I know.

Though all you have to do is like Apple’s App Store page. And then you’ll get a code (haven’t done so myself, since I already own the game). Not sure how long this offer will last… I get the impression that there’ll be a new free game on a rolling basis, so act fast. Or simply wait till something else comes up that might be more your cup of tea?
