If there was a circle of hell designed specifically to test jaywalkers, Crossy Road would be it. The motorists are equally brutal, casually running down chickens, elderly men and endangered “unihorses” at slow speeds without bothering to stop.


Loiter too long and you’ll be swooped up by a mass of talons and feathers, never to be seen again – the bird probably comes from the same murderous hatchery as Far Cry 4’s eagles. Players have to cross procedurally-generated traffic, train tracks and physics-defying rivers, not for personal top scores or online leaderboards (as most are led to believe), but simply to escape the cruel clutches of a blood-crazed avian predator. Micro-transactions for characters that can be acquired through gameplay.Ĭrossy Road is a survival-horror story masked by cute characters and a colourful palette.
