It’s rare to find an app that both kids and adults can enjoy. I usually play puzzle type games whereas my son plays learning games for kids, but we both can’t stop playing the new game, PLAY-DOH Jam. We love playing with Play-Doh in our house and this game takes the fun to a whole new level.
In PLAY-DOH Jam, you play as a rolling PLAY-DOH ball. Players drag their finger on the screen to make a path and roll over PLAY-DOH targets along the way. The more you squash with your PLAY-DOH ball, the bigger the ball becomes and the faster it rolls.
PLAY-DOH Jam is simple to play and so fun. It asks your age at the beginning so it can tailor the level of the game to your age. You start the game in the first level, Mt. Maraca. There are multiple levels throughout the game and each level has different tasks and a big boss PLAY-DOH monster at the end.
You start the game as a ball of PLAY-DOH. Using your finger, you direct the ball where to go and squish PLAY-DOH monsters along the way. The more monsters you squish, the bigger your ball gets. Throughout the game, there are bigger monsters to squish, but you need to be at least their size to be able to squish them. If you are smaller than the monster and bump into them, you lose?a point. At the end of each round, you roll your PLAY-DOH ball into a big monster which earns you points.
The points you earn from rolling into the PLAY-DOH monster at the end go towards your Powerplay score. With each Powerplay earned, it makes your PLAY-DOH ball bigger or faster, which usually allows you to squish some of the larger monsters.
You also accumulate points with each monster you squish. You can use these points to make new monsters to add to each level, giving you more to squish. My favorite monster would have to be the cassette tape – it was a throwback to my childhood and my son had no clue what it was and I enjoyed being able to explain that to him.
PLAY-DOH Jam has easily become my new favorite app to play and my son and I often play it together. It’s so much fun and is easy to play. As you progress through the game, the tasks and levels get harder, which makes the game even better. This game truly encourages fans of all ages to play and it’s awesome to watch PLAY-DOH come to life. I can’t wait to see how far I can get in PLAY-DOH Jam.
PLAY-DOH Jam is now available for iOS and Android mobile devices in the App Store and on Google Play. Check out more fun games at BackFlip Studios!
