The only real incentive to replay the game is to unlock the characters & set yourself a high score. Score thresholds unlock characters waiting at your train station (menu screen) & you can also unlock the original music video that started it all off. You will have to flick piranha away from eating the genitals of one character, duck at the right time as one character pokes a bear with a stick & fit the missing letters in to spell ‘patience’ to name just a few.Įach come with their own amusing death sequence if failed & result in a life lost, lose all 3 & it is game over. The mini-games are short but pretty clever (at least the first time you see then). Every so often the game will indicate that it is all going to get faster & the allotted time you have to save the character goes down a lot quicker. The entire game is just 15 mini-games that task you with saving the lives of the dumb characters. You know, Kate Moss the well-known gamer…. Keeping in line with the campaign players can also pledge not to do stupid stuff around trains.ĭumb Ways To Die perked up my interest thanks to a bizarre tagline in its app-store description…”Kate Moss’s favourite game, according to The Guardian”. The game was released in May 2013 & gave players the change to avoid the many hazards that kill the characters from the video. Thanks to the accompanying song it was a huge hit on YouTube. The video saw 21 cartoonish characters killing themselves in dumb ways ending with 3 being killed by trains because of unsafe behaviour. It was to promote rail safety & the video went viral after a huge social media following. Dumb Ways to Die is actually a public service announcement campaign by Metro Trains, Melbourne, Australia & is free to play.
