Rollercoaster Extreme For S^3 Devices
High-Speed Ride Through The New York City

Get ready for serious speed and the fastest rollercoaster ride on your Symbian^3 device with Rollercoaster Extreme, a new game from Barclaycard.

Built by Dare and the Hamburg-based game developer FISHLABS, and inspired by the successful TV ad, Rollercoaster Extreme sends players on a high-speed ride through (eight individual rollercoaster tracks) the Big Apple.

Playing is easy. The faster you go, the higher your score. The faster players fling themselves around the tricky tracks, the more points they collect. Players are up against the clock but they also have to collect objects en route in order to boost their points.

Tilt your phone left and right, grab energisers for extra speed boosts and look out for diversions that test your rider skills. Unlock new areas in the game and collect all badges at each level to prove you ’re a real extreme rollercoaster rider.

But be careful! Players don't always benefit from the items along the way. The biggest dangers are bridges and gigantic wrecking balls that whiz overhead and which players have to duck to avoid. It’s a tough challenge!
