The intention is to get all the bowls in the level. Once you've done this you have to go to the exit; the door which will open. While you are trying to get these bowls, there are some other creatures that are walking through the level and they'll try to kill you so you have to start the level again.

Jetpack was an immediate hit when it was released in 1993.
The nice graphics, good gameplay and sounds have made a lot of people addicted to it. So addicted that they created their own level packs for Jetpack. You can download them at the homepage of Adept Software: adeptsoftware.com/jetpack.

Jetpack is an adventure game that was released in the early 90s. In the game you will play the role of an adventurer and try to gather gems from the different levels. To make the game more challenging there are traps and enemies that you need to avoid in every level. After you collect all the gems from a level, you can then proceed to the door that will give you access to the next level.
As you go along in the game, you will find special fuel tanks that can be used as a fuel for the jetpack that is attacked to your back. When you get the special tanks, you can fly around the screen. This will help you get the gems. Without the fuel tanks you can only jump around. The jetpack will also allow you to break crates and also to dig through walls. The crates will permanently disappear after you break them but the brick walls will reappear after several seconds.
There are also some items that you can use on the enemies to prevent yourself from dying. There is a stunner that you can use which stuns your enemies so that you can get past them without dying. There is also a special shield which prevents any damage to you. The shield will prevent damages not just from enemies but from traps as well.
It is important for the player to have quick reflexes and also to go about the game with perfect timing as more and more enemies and traps will appear as you get to the higher levels. One good feature of the game is how you can save your game so you don’t have to always restart from the very start. You can take a short break and just come back to your game. The game also has a multi-player mode where up to eight players can play. But since this isn’t a new game, it’s not really very easy to look for gamers to play with you.
If you think the numerous levels that are already part of the game you can find sites where you can download additional levels for the game. You can also create your own levels for the game. These features make the game’s replay value high. You can play this game over and over without getting bored with it.
This is a fun game and I encourage everyone to download it. It’s worth countless hours of gaming fun.
