QWOP For iPhone Is An Olympic Challenge For Thumbs

By |

Learn to walk, learn to run all over again with QWOP, the iPhone port of the highly entertaining and/or maddening track and field Flash game of 2008. Using a touchscreen to independently control calves and thighs sounds fun, right?

Well, QWOP may not be fun in the traditional sense. Itā€™s wacky. Itā€™s challenging. But one can make the argument that, as video games go, this is a clumsy control scheme. As QWOP, ā€œthe local sporting hero of a prosperous country in the Scandinavian Alps,ā€ even crossing the finish line isnā€™t easy. Taking control of QWOPā€™s legs and his sense of balance might test your patienceā€”or even better the patience of your friends when you hand them this thing.

The gameā€™s instruction screen offers one hint, saying that to make QWOP run, alternating clockwise rotations on the touchscreen control areas are recommended. Didnā€™t work for me!

Play the original QWOP online or grab it from iTunes (itā€™s priced at $1.99 USD right now) if the above looks like your idea a good time.
