Flash Mobile Game Review: Log Jam

Log Jam
Developed by Blue Sky North

"Blue Sky North pushed the bar on Flash Lite game development and created the perfect mobile game."














Overview: This must be one of the most interesting mobile game cases around. Developed by Blue Sky North, Log Jam was released in two versions: 01 for the iRiver U10 portable device and 01 for S60 phones. In both platforms they succeeded to provide the best Flash Lite game to date. When you play it on the iRiver, there´s a feeling that the device itself was specially designed for the game, due the fact the game controls fit exactly the U10 navigation system.

The main objective of the game is to keep the lumberjack buddy spinning on the log as long as possible. When the player reaches 40-45 seconds, the game speed is increased and it turns a bit harder to control.

There are slightly minor differences in the available versions (due to hardware limitations and input methods aspects), considering the score is not persistent on S60 phones, but works well on the U10, and, on the phone, it looks like to be a little easier to achieve better times.

The good: The game is just perfect. Original concept, professional graphics and really FUN gameplay. Everyone around always want to give it a try, so the experience can turn into a huge group activity.

The bad: No sound at all.
