Back in 1992 Microsoft came out with a new game called JezzBall.  Essentially, it was their take on the Xonix style genre.  In JezzBall, you were faced with an enclosed room, with balls  (often referred to as atoms) bouncing within it.  Your job is to confine these balls to increasingly smaller spaces until a predefined amount of the board has been blocked off.  This was a relatively interesting game, which Microsoft stopped supporting over a decade ago (in 1996).  Despite this lack of support, however, the game has maintained a fairly loyal and consistent following.  Numerous online JezzBall games and related clones can be found across the web. 

Well, here we are, more than a decade after the original JezBall was supposed to have died.  I think it is about time this game come back down out of the Cloud.  And our friends at Birdsoft (aka Crazy Bird in the iTunes store) agreed.  Of course, in the time since we last saw an official release of JezzBall, the world of computers have changed.  Rather than bringing the game back to your desktop, Birdsoft has brought it to your palmtop…specifically, to your iPhone.  Let’s take a closer look at this fully updated and revived variation of this classic game.

One of my favorite developers is Birdsoft.  They make some fantastic mobile applications and games for a myriad of different platforms.  In fact, their PIM, Extreme Agenda, has long been a staple on my Windows Mobile device.  So, in the interest of sharing our favorite things, we are going to give three of you a program of your choice (any platform) from one of my favorite developers.  So, let’s go ahead and pick some winners:

Congratulation!  Watch for an email from JAMM coming soon with all of the details to claim your prize.  For the rest of you…well, let’s just say we are not finished yet.  We are gearing up for the grand finale of this contest, and as Ed Sullivan might have said, we have some really big prizes.  So, if you have not entered yet, hurry on over to our contest page and get your entry in before it is too late.

I am a huge fan of poker.  And I love color matching games.  This strikes me as an opportunity which is ripe for a chocolate in my peanut butter moment.  Fortunately, I don’t have to speculate about what the outcome of that moment might be.  My good friends at Birdsoft have already done that work for me.  Yes, this is the same Birdsoft which gave us the much acclaimed Extreme Agenda for Windows Mobile.  Hit the jump and we can take a closer look at what happens when poker meets Bejeweled.

Just Another quick post to announce the latest winners in our JAMM relaunch contest.  Before I get to the winners, though, I did want to make one quick administrative note.  I am out of town for a few days and do not have great Internet coverage.  As such, while I have been picking winners the last few days, I have not had a chance to contact all of the winners yet.  So, please just be patient.  As soon as I get home next week, I will be contacting all of the remaining winners.

OK.  Today’s winners will each receive a copy of Birdsoft’s fabulous Extreme Agenda, as well as a copy of any program from PhatWare.  So, let’s take a look in the official JAMM contest hat and see who today’s winners are:
