Take To The Streets for some GTA Style Car Jacking

Published by at

UK Publisher Tag Games has been working on a GTA styled mobile game for many months, and now Car Jack Streets is available for download. Given that the Tag founders were part of the original design team for the first Grand Theft Auto, it's no surprise that this is an addictive little mobile game, that makes best use of the smartphone environment. Ewan's full review can be found here.

The game itself is based around completing short missions - these could be as simple (and legal) as delivering Pizza around the city (and getting paid an amazing $100 per pizza, that's a mighty fine slice or two for the driver to earn that much!) right up to being the getaway driver on a bank robbery, destroying the cars for sale at a new garage that's muscling in on the town's existing business, and putting the frighteners on people who aren't paying the Mafia their dues. And all of this is because you have dues you need to pay back the local crime boss. Frankie is a generous sort though, and he'll let you pay your million dollar debt off at the just for you rate of $50,000 a week.

UPDATE: Some of you are worried on the pricing and availability on Car Jack Streets, so we got in touch with Paul Farley at Tag-Games. Here's his reply:

In terms of price then it’s £5 and can be downloaded direct by texting “GANG” to 80010 in Europe. Outside Europe you’ll need to check with your carrier. The game launches in North America on all major carriers from March 2009.

Hope that helps reassure you all.
