Awexome Cross is a game of speed and skill. Playing as The Cheat, you must ride the Tire through an obstacle course in Strongbadia.

  • Collect the buxx.
  • Collect turbos to speed up the tire.
  • Collect power...downs? (little back arrows) if you're going too fast.

You get a nice shiny little trophy for each level you complete. The obstacles are General Tso's Chicken, Cinderblocks, syrup bottles, and boxes. If you hit them, you lose a life. At the end of each level, there's the sign propped up against the cinderblock. You skid off the sign and add up your points with Strong Mad. You get a trophy and an extra life before you head off to the next one.

Easter Eggs

Not quite a Congraturation
  • If you collect every single dollar, and never die a single time up to the point where you've obtained exactly 25,000 points, you will be rewarded with a secret screen. It shows two scantily clad women (like in a NASCAR race) holding up the Cheat, and the Cheat appears to have a pizza trophy of some sort. There is also the message "Yeah, you won."
