Crossy Road

Because being productive is for suckers, Hipster Whale has updated Crossy Road to work in the iPad's new splitscreen mode - meaning you can play the traffic-hopping obsession while reading tweets, watching a video, or doing your taxes.

If you've got an older iPad, you can play the game in a little pull-out window on the side. But if you're rocking an iPad Air 2, you can play the game in one window, and use another app in the other.

Here's the full lowdown on iPad multitasking in iOS 9, if you need to catch up. Maybe read it while playing Crossy Road?

The game's also got five new spooky Halloween characters, including a skeleton and a pumpkin. No secret characters this time, so you can get them all through random drops or in-app purchases.
