An endless hopper about a journey with no destination, Crossy Road has thrilled millions with its pick-up-and-play appeal, charming graphics and countless ways to meet your demise.
And with loads of updates since its 2014 arrival on the App Store, it (wisely) hasn’t stopped moving. Here’s why we keep on crossing:
It’s got a menagerie
‣ Crossy Road stars – what else – a chicken tasked with crossing roads, forests, railroad tracks and more. But the game’s roster has expanded exponentially since launch. More than 260 new characters have been introduced, many of which completely change the game’s look and feel. From Bashy Beaver to Poopy Pigeon (a fave among kiddos), there’s someone for everyone.
It’s fun with friends
‣ Crossy Road has always been an amazing solo experience, but you can now double your fun with same-device multiplayer. Pit characters head-to-head as you and a pal hop, skip and jump past trucks, over floating logs and occasionally into the river while sharing a split screen. Loser buys lunch!
It’s always adding
‣ Australian developer Hipster Whale continues to mix things up. With each new update come fresh pop culture references and bold new worlds like space, ocean and even prehistory. Think it’s tough to hop past a speeding train? Try a stampeding T. rex!
