Features & Capabilities

QWOP is the local sporting hero of a prosperous country in the scandinavian alps. Unfortunately, it is too cold there for an outdoor track, and QWOP has come to the championships without completing his training!

You can help QWOP achieve his sporting dreams! You just need to show him how to run.

Control QWOP's legs and arms by moving your thumbs around in the diamonds on the screen. Move your thumbs in clockwise circles to make him run. Make QWOP lean forward and back by tilting your device.

And whatever you do, don't let QWOP's body touch the ground!

Features:

Five game modes: 100m, Hurdles, Long Jump, Steeplechase, and 50km Walk!
Hilarious physics engine.
GameCenter leaderboards. Set a high score and challenge your friends.

User Reviews

QWOP for iOS is loved by some for its humor and quirky charm, delivering a fun, goofy experience that can lift mood. However, it is repeatedly criticized for awkward controls, persistent bugs and finish-line scoring issues, noticeable lag, and a perception of low value at the $0.99 price. The core appeal is the comedy and chaotic physics, but the heavy difficulty and technical problems deter many players.

Pros

Humor and entertainment value with funny, exaggerated falls that make players laugh.
Fun, casual gameplay that remains entertaining even though it is challenging.
Solid performance and broad appeal; many reviewers say it works well and enjoy the experience.
Unique charm and nostalgia of the QWOP-style experience, including humorous reactions and memes.

Cons

Controls are confusing and poorly implemented compared to the original QWOP (joystick-like scheme, not four-button layout).
Frequent bugs and glitches affecting scoring and finish-line logic (PB updates, fake records, and end-game conditions).
Lag and performance issues, especially in long jump mode, with reports of memory leaks and stuttering.
Perceived poor value for money (reports of wasted $.99 and requests for refunds).
Extreme difficulty and frustration that makes progression feel punishing rather than fun.

If only I could get my money back

This game is perfect, down to ONE aspect. The only problem is that when I do the 100M sprint, and get past the finish, it says I failed. I've tried to get under 30 seconds to see if there's a time limit, and even that didn't work. But otherwise, this game is PERFECT.

This game works well, but I have been unable to pass the finish line and get a time for runs on the 100m run and 110m hurdles, other than that the long jump works fine.
