This hilarious Drake video game app is a very literal interpretation of what is likely the most famous line from the Toronto rapper's most recent mixtape. The 'Runnin through the 6' gaming app is a side-scrolling adventure that takes the user through Toronto with Drake.
The game features a tiny cartoon Drake running through Toronto and catching the '6' emoji for a fun bonus of 100 points. Designed by Nico Uribe, the iPhone app is available for free download in the iTunes store.
The game also features plenty of prayer hand emojis, just like Drake's now infamous forearm tattoo, and a wheelchair emoji that renders the Drake cartoon back into his Degrassi character, which is a playful reference to a meme that popped up on disability signs around Toronto in 2014.
