As you're all aware by now Halloween is seven days away and whether you're going to dress up as a cat, a zombie, a ghoul, or just your regular self, there's one thing that no one can ignore this year – clowns. After the creepy clowns phenomenon swept across the globe over the past few months of course someone was going to make a game about it.

"Tap carefully to bounce your way to Clown supremacy. The clown craze has swept the globe now it's your turn to join in on the action with the Official Killer Clown Chase mobile game!" – That's the entire description.

Obviously following on from this utterly terrifying and sensationally stupid sensation, the aim of the game is to get as far as you can by jumping on disappearing bars, cars, and people to get extra points. If you touch the floor however you're dead – so it's kind of like a horrible clown game mixed with 'the floor is lava'.

To be honest this killer clown craze is probably one of the stupidest ones to hit the internet since planking was a thing. However it definitely proves one theory that exists alongside the general internet rules – if it exists, there's probably a game of it.

If you want to check it out you can grab Killer Clown Chase on the App Store here free-to-play.
