Solid app!   Well, I just got this app today, and I have to say, I am thoroughly pleased. When I first opened it up, I made the mistake of skipping over the instructions, being the lazy person I am. My advice: read the info. It helps. A LOT. Kudos to the developer for including such detailed instructions on how to play the game. Gameplay is quite fun. Normally, I am not a big fan of puzzle games, but this is an exception. It's challenging, but still fun, and has a very high replay value. Upon first sight, Jamzu does not have a particularly beautiful graphics display, but considering the fun factor of this game, it does not matter. I also like how you can listen to your own music while playing the game, this is quite a nice bonus. All in all, great app. Jamzu deserves a spot on your iphone.

Fun board game   Really unique game! Very strategic and fun. You definitely need to read through the instructions like the other reviewers said. I usually try to play though a game and figure it out as I go, but for this, take a good look at the instructions. So anyway, I really like this! I haven't put it down since I got it 2 days ago, and yet I still have yet to win a game. Alright, I'm off to get in some more practice and play some more! Great game

Mind bending and never gets "old"   Been playing this since it was released. It has some moves and gameplay that I've not seen before in a board game, and even though I play it regularly it never ceases to make me scratch my head about the next move I should make. Gameplay is fast, furious, and a great way to occupy myselft between client meetings when I should actually be doing 'real work'. I recommend it.

My new favorite game!   This game is fun, challenging, strategic, and yet has an element of chance. And did I mention addicting? I love playing it with friends. I recommend it to anyone who likes backgammon, chess, checkers, gin-rummy and the like. Well, it's not exactly a card game, but the chance element is akin to cards (or dice, to be more exact). It's original, and I just plain ol' love it!

Very unique and fun to play   The developer has created a very unique game here and it is worth a try. After a little trial and error the Mrs and I battle over the game. We both have become addicted. If you are looking for something new and unique give it a try. You wont be disappointed.

Highly polished strategy game   I have several chess and go apps, and they are nice.... BUT THIS is so much more because it doesn't try to emulate a board game, it makes use of the platform. It takes a couple rounds to really understand the rules, but the visual cues are top notch, and the game is well thought out.

this is one of the most original games I have played on my ipod!   This game is like a mix between chess and checkers in every good way you can possibly think of. It takes a lot of critical thinking to win and is suprisingly fun to play. The game is very polished and the AI is tuff. Even on the easy setting, you have to really think hard to win. It's a game about trying to win and keep the other player from winning by any means necessary! I would definitely recommend this game to any fans of strategic board games.

Jamzu = Fun Strategy Game!   Makes you think for a change. Use the HINT button to get started & learn more quickly. The A.I. is a bit tough - but, with practice you can beat it!

Good Board Game   This is a good strategic game. I didn't think so at first, but it is very strategic. The rules take a few levels or tries to figure out but once you know them, it gets easier. The hint button became a good friend of mine. If you are looking for a good strategic game that will rack your brain, this is a great candidate for that game.
