Rough Guides are proud to announce its Rough Roads App for iPhone and iPod touch is now available on the App Store. Escape on your daily commute as you travel the world in your trusty Rough Guides camper van, dodging buses in London, sumo wrestlers in Tokyo or surfers in Sydney.
Collect Rough Roads bonus icons as you try to unlock destination fact cards, which you can share with friends through Twitter (for example, did you know that the world’s largest cattle ranch is in Australia and is the same size as Belgium?). Then rate your skills against your friends and other players as you work your way up the Game Center leaderboard. Rough Roads is fast, furious and highly addictive.
Peter Buckley, Digital Publisher at Rough Guides and DK Travel says: “We’re really pleased to be launching Rough Roads for iPhone and iPod touch. With all new levels and leader board functionality we hope it will be just as addictive as the viral game which has already seen over eleven million people take part.”

• Collect bonus items to transport you to another far-flung destination;
