Crossy Road Tips and Cheats
Why did the chicken cross the road?
You may not be able to answer this, but now you can make a chicken cross as many roads as you like! Or at least, as many roads as you’re capable of crossing. Crossy Road is a fairly simple game: help a chicken cross the road. It’s very similar to the old arcade game, Frogger. You can move forward by tapping or sideways by swiping. You gain a point for each hop forward, but you have to avoid cars, trucks, trains and falling into rivers! But don’t dither too long. If you don’t move quickly enough, the screen will catch up with your mascot and send a plane to bring you back to the start. You can also gain points by picking them up when you hop on them. Although gaining coins helps you get game swag, sometimes it’s smarter to leave them behind so you can hop to safety quickly.
After a certain amount of time, usually a half hour, Crossy Road will give you a gift. This includes the ability to play as a new mascot, if you have enough coins to buy it. Some of the additional mascots include a cow, a frog and an ‘unlucky cat’. Sometimes, it will let you access new options by watching an ad. Unfortunately, if you accidentally tap an ad, there is no way to get out of it. You will just have to watch the 30 second ad, usually for another app. You can also use your coins on a slot machine to get new mascots. If you want to, you can even use your real money to buy more coins and mascots.
Crossy Road is an easier Temple Run. It’d be perfect for time killing on public transportation or between appointments. It might not be quite as addicting as Candy Crush or Two Dots, but it will keep you entertained. The 8-bit graphics are nostalgic and appealing, bringing Frogger to mind once more. It’ll certainly kick off that competition sector of your brain, even if you’re the only one playing! You can link up to Google Play or the Game Center to see how well your friends do on Crossy Road.
Crossy Road is definitely worth the free download! It is available in the App Store, Google Play and as an Amazon app. Let us know how far you get
