Javelin through the face. Running with scissors. Falling into an icy lake.

These are just a few of the ways you can die in Dumb Ways to Die 2: The Games.

It's the sequel to the viral hit Dumb Ways to Die. And, as such, is a series of WarioWare-like safety-focused mini-games.
You pick a location on the map to send your train to, and once you arrive, you try to survive a number of hazard-filled games.

They're easy enough to get to grips with, needing only a single line instruction, but completing them proves challenging. Plus, the longer you survive, the faster each game goes.

You need to trace shapes to do up shoelaces, swipe to clean a monster's hair, tap to jump over electric hurdles, and tilt to ski safely down a mountain.

My favourite of those I've seen played so far involves doing nothing. Your task is to not lick a cold pole. So if you touch a screen the character licks the pole, sticking their tongue to it like in the Dumb and Dumber movie.

It's more silliness and humourous cartoon death, which is exactly what you should want from a sequel to Dumb Ways to Die.

You can download Dumb Ways to Die 2: The Games for free on the App Store. It has ad-support and IAPs.
