Drink More Glurp

Drink More Glurp is a wacky sports game where you take turns to play athletic challenges. The twist is that you have to control your over-long arms with a separate joystick and your body is a wheel you can roll along on if you lift your arms right up. You can move and grab with each arm using a button and stick for each.

Competitive Local

It's a mix of simplicity and complexity that actually becomes quite intuitive to use as you get used to it. Still, you do have to wrestle with the real-world physics. Executing the right move takes both precision and timing.

Run, jump, throw and compete with up to 20 people in the Party Mode or aim to score on the online leaderboards in Challenge Mode. Each game has a sponsor which adds different abilities to change up the challenge. This might add low gravity or super-strength throughout. Or maybe sticky arms or exploding fists.

The funny physics and enjoyment of watching other people grapple with the controls make this a great game to play together. Also, because it's turn-taking there's none of the usual pressure to perform at the same time as each other.

Insights to ensure your child's gaming experience remains safe and enjoyable

Healthy competition

These games often involve competition, either against AI opponents or other players. This can be enjoyable and promote healthy competition. However, sometimes it can lead to frustration and anger, which might be a sign to take a break. Talk to your child about recognising these feelings and taking breaks when the game is no longer fun.

Improve sports skills

Video games based on sport can help children develop an interest and greater understanding of rules within the sport. Explore the sport outside of the video game to support their interests and develop their skills.

Balance with Other Activities

Children often play sport video games because of interest in the sport itself. Balance their gaming time with playing the real sport together.

You need good timing and coordination to do well in the sports. But any player with a good sense of humour can enjoy the silly competitive nature of the game.
