Oh, and the first two level packs chart their way through A New Hope, and the first level pack is teased planet Hoth, aka the opening scene from Empire Strikes Back. I'm looking forward to seeing the yellow bird get encased in carbonite because that would be funny.

FREE Greedy Jump Review

It's great to see an addictive free-to-play game like Greedy Jump hit the App Store, but the problem with free-to-play is that it can be difficult to balance and that's no different here. The use of gems to buy new stuff, the ability to buy more gems with real money, and the way gems are rationed out through regular play all make sense and are typical practices but the balance feels off Specifically a number of the items in the store are disproportionately expensive when Compared to the rate Typically gems are earned. In otherwords it's either shell out some cash or play a lot in order to get new stuff.
