Crossy Road
Click to play this game
Crossy Road is the modern classic that asks the age-old question: "Why did the chicken cross the road?" The answer, apparently, is to avoid getting flattened by a semi-truck. You control a blocky character hopping across a never-ending landscape of highways, train tracks, and rivers.
The controls are simple—tap to move forward, swipe to move sideways—but the game is ruthlessly difficult. Timing is everything. You have to weave through heavy traffic, jump across logs floating in rapid currents, and avoid the eagle that swoops down if you dally too long.
The charming voxel art style gives the game a unique, playful look. There are hundreds of pop-culture inspired characters to unlock, from astronauts to zombies, each with their own funny sound effects and environmental quirks.
It is the perfect "wait, one more turn" game. You will find yourself holding your breath as you make a desperate dash across an eight-lane superhighway.
It is pure arcade distilled. The risk-reward of grabbing a coin in the middle of traffic keeps the adrenaline pumping. Plus, unlocking the "Doge" character is a rite of passage.
The traffic is heavy. The river is wild. Can you make the crossing? Click Play now and start hopping!
