However, none of them had any effect on the game itself. The game gave further incentive by providing coins that could be used to spin a slot machine and unlock new characters, some of which had cute visual quirks, and others that changed the visual style of the game completely. It was a simple game where you played a chicken that crossed a never ending series of roads and streams. There has been one exception to this rule, and that was a game called Crossy Road.ĭubbed an endless frogger by many critics, the game, made by a small development group by the name of Hipster Whale, drew me in with its simplicity and the fact that I was playing the same game on day 30 as I was on day one. It’s silly really considering it is a free game but I still avoid these types of games anyway out of habit.

I always jump to the worst possible conclusion about them, that they just exist to exploit people into giving them more money and time than they really should. I’m normally one to steer well clear of iOS and mobile based games.
