Pick up speed and evade flying sharks in races against your friends in barmy dodge-'em-up Hurricane Rush

The characters in Hurricane Rush are all clearly quite mad.

I mean, who gets sucked up into a hurricane and thinks it's a good idea to see how fast you can hurtle through the air?

A basketball; ball and chain; grenade; splinter; and the rest of the playable cast in Hurricane Rush think it's a swell idea, apparently.

As you can tell by the abovementioned concept, Hurricane Rush is a bit barmy. And that's undeniably one of its strengths.

As you fly through the centre of the hurricane, cartoon pigs, sharks, cows, houses, and construction beams spring out for you to dodge.

You get the choice of touchscreen or tilt controls. It's not just dodging that you need to take care of, mind.

To stand any chance of beating your friends, you'll need to reach the highest possible speed. Connecting through Facebook or Game Center, you'll race one another by flying through the acceleration rings and seeing who can survive for longest.

You can also grab coins and health pick-ups on your travels. You can purchase new characters that have their own perks and downfalls with these coins. You can also use coins to continue your current run should you crash.

Hurricane Rush is a free game, but there are optional IAPs available. You can also buy a coin magnet if that's more your style.
