Dumb Ways to Die is a compilation of mini-games involving cute bean a like characters in dangerous situations under the thematic of safety. The game was created part of a public service announcement campaign for Metro Trains in Melbourne. The video of this campaign became a humongous viral hit and won an impressive list of prestigious prizes that brought great visibility and success to the original message of safety around train. The game itself was ingeniously developed by Julian Frost(that also directed and fully animated the video) and Samuel Baird, an australian collaborative duo that works together under the name Barrel of Donkeys. The gameplay à la Wario Ware: Smooth Moves combined with the adorably morbid and fluid animations made this game an undeniable classic of mobile games.
