A first-person tactical shooter developed and published by Gameloft for the N-Gage in August 2004, in which players command a squad of US Army special forces — the Ghosts — through eight missions across Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru, combating FARC and a related militia group threatening regional stability.
On consoles, Jungle Storm was a Red Storm/Ubisoft expansion to Ghost Recon Island Thunder; for the N-Gage, Gameloft built an independent version that preserved the franchise's team-tactics flavour while adapting controls and pacing to the hardware. The N-Gage iteration offered one of the platform's most substantial multiplayer packages: up to eight players via Bluetooth in Deathmatch, Defend, co-operative, and Survival modes. GameSpot named it the most broadly featured and enjoyable FPS yet released on the N-Gage, and it finished as runner-up in the outlet's Best N-Gage Game of 2004 award, narrowly losing to Colin McRae Rally 2005. It was the second Tom Clancy N-Gage game from Gameloft, following Splinter Cell: Team Stealth Action the previous Christmas.

Havana, 2009: Castro's death leaves a power vacuum in Cuba, and a Colombian drug cartel wants it all. The island's first free elections are under threat until the U.S. sends in the Ghosts, an elite team of Army Green Berets, as part of a UN peacekeeping force to subdue the warlords and secure the elections.
Bogota, a few months later: While the Cubans revel in their newfound democracy, the Colombian cartel has set its sights on a new target: home. Readying a retaliatory blow against its own American-allied government, the Columbian cartel rocks the capital with severe explosions, including one that all but demolishes the American embassy. The Columbian government calls for assistance, and this is where you come in. Restore order in the country and eliminate the warlords and their escalating terror activities.
