Based on the Disney Channel sequel about a summer music camp, Camp Rock: The Final Jam mixes musical instrument simulation with mini-games patterned after traditional camp activities. Players create their own character, including customizing their avatar's clothing, accessories, and makeup, and then join familiar Camp Rockers Mitchie, Shane, Nate, and Jason as they prepare to compete against Camp Star in the titular final jam. Gamers can use their stylus and touch screen to play bass, guitar, and drums, or take part in camping activities like dancing competitions, canoe racing, and water-balloon fights. Camp Rock: The Final Jam is compatible with Disney's "DGamer" online community, which lets players chat with friends and unlock new in-game items.
