Despicable Me: Minion Rush is an upcoming smartphone application from the award winning creators of Despicable Me: The Movie. The movie spawned a series of follow up merchandise based on the characters from the movie including video games, collectible and costume accessories, collectible items, clothing and even mugs. There are several free online flash games related to the movie, but this one has a few differences. It features the title character as well as several other Despicable Me characters like Mike andesty from the first movie, Norm from Desperate Housewives and Diego from the second.
The game is very much like the older version of Despicable Me: Minion Rush where you have to prevent an evil mastermind from stealing the precious cargo in the cargo ship by unlocking the secrets to the cabin. This time around though, there are more traps and jammers that will prevent you from reaching the goal. Aside from the new rooms, you can also extend your adventure by playing Endless Runners which is still a free iPhone game. Unlike the previous versions, however, the free version includes a number of bugs that make the game unplayable on the iPad and its motion sensor enabled tablets. In addition, there are currently no plans to release an ios version of Despicable Me: Minion Rush.
The controls of this iPhone application are simple. Just tap on the screen to fire Despicable Me: Minion Rush's cannons at the bad guys. There are four variations of the cannon that you can select, each with a different level of accuracy as well as different effects. The newest addition to the power-ups is the "power-up" coin that, once clicked on, will transform your minions into powerful machines capable of doing damage to the enemy.
