We're just going to warn you here and now – if you start to play Jelly Battle now, there's every chance you'll still be playing at Christmas. Jelly Battle is so fiendishly addictive that when you play it you're basically choosing between a normal life or life spent playing Jelly Battle. We appear to have chosen the latter.

In Jelly Battle, you play a jelly baby who has to leap across a screen and collect weapons that will ultimately destroy its opponents. It sounds simple enough, but the scope for different strategies in Jelly Battle is quite phenomenal. You can play defensively – picking up health bonuses, teleporting around to avoid attack and building shields, or you can just go all out to destroy the other – real-life – players as fast as you can. We're so in love with Jelly Battle that we're frankly annoyed that we just wasted £20 on a Worms PSP game.
