Who’s going to help those hapless Beans survive an outdoor getaway? You, of course! Dumb Ways to Die 4’s whimsical mini-games throw our legume heroes into hazardous new situations where, once again, only fast actions can keep them safe. Tap a hang glider to avert a crash, rub a bear’s tummy to calm him down...what kind of vacation is this, anyway?

What we love: The variety! The mini-games take you from the forest (roast marshmallows without getting burned) to outer space (get that astronaut a helmet!)—and you’re not just tapping and swiping. You might tilt your device to keep a tightrope walker from falling, or shake it to fill a snow globe. You never know what’s next, except that it definitely involves danger.

Quick tip: Don’t forget about each Bean’s unique abilities. Can’t hammer nails fast enough? Play as Doofus, who gives you more time in tapping mini-games. Want to unlock new areas and mini-games faster? Pick Loopy, whose +200 starting score earns you extra gold.

Meet the creator: Dumb Ways to Die 4 comes from PlaySide Studios, which acquired the franchise from Metro Trains Melbourne in 2021. Their deep mobile catalog includes Fantasy Warfare: Legion Battle, Idle Recycle, and Drift It!
