If you haven’t watched the game show Wipeout on ABC you don’t know what you’re missing. If you are a fan of the show you’re in for a treat as last week Activision released Wipeout for Android.
Wipeout the game lets you step into the shoes of a contestant on the show where you’ll try to beat other players to advance to the next round by taking on different obstacle courses. The game lets you take on multiple seasons and episodes like Old MacBallsy, The K.O. Corral, and Strikeout just to name a few. There are several contestants to choose from in the game although you’ll have to unlock them; the same can be said for special power-up hats that can give you a big boost during gameplay. Another cool feature is the ability to replay your favorite Wipeouts in slo-mo where you can take a snapshot of your epic fail and send it off for others to enjoy. Needless to say, there’s plenty to do and Wipeout is a game that should keep you busy for quite a while.
Activision’s Android games have been hit or miss (Activision Anthology), but I’m happy to say Wipeout is rock solid and a whole lotta’ fun. As a fan of the show it’s pretty cool to be able to play in some of your favorite events and it’s a family friendly game that anyone can have some fun with. There’s currently no demo available, but the full version of Wipeout for Android can be yours for only $1.99.
