Overview

Big Bumpin' is a comedic top-down action advergame developed by Blitz Games and published by King Games for both the Xbox 360 and Xbox exclusively in North American Burger King restaurants between November 19, 2006 and December 24, 2006.

Using a carnival setting, Big Bumpin' has players participating in five different party-style multiplayer mini-games by driving around in bumper cars, including two-on-two air hockey (Bumpin' Hockey), bumping each-other off an arena (Last Man Standing), and fighting over control of a roaming puck (Own the Puck). It includes branding from the Burger King fast food chain, including The King, The Subservient Chicken, and Brooke Burke (Character) as playable characters.

The game was sold alongside two other games, PocketBike Racer and Sneak King (Game), for $4.00 each with the purchase of any value meal. All three games are unique in that versions for both Xbox platforms were included on the game's disc, with the Xbox version resulting in lower graphical quality. The Xbox 360 version includes achievements worth 200 points (similar to Xbox Live Arcade titles at the time) and online multiplayer, although it is one of the few games for the system that cannot be installed on the system's HDD.

Game Modes

There are five game modes in total, with two locales for each mode (totaling 10 different "rides").

Bumpin' Hockey

Locales: Ice Box, King's Court

This game plays a lot like air hockey, except you're using a bumper car. There's two teams of two, and you must hit the puck into the other team's net. There's also some power ups on the field including a shield, a speed boost, and a power drainer.

Last Man Standing

Locales: The Broiler, Ice Box

This game mode is an arena-style type of battle mode. It's you vs. three other bumper cars with trap doors, saw blades, and all other sorts of goodies set up around the arena. This game type doesn't usually last long.

Own the Puck

Locales: King's Court, Monsoon of Doom

In this game mode, there's a puck that you need to touch. As soon as you touch it, the puck will change to your bumper car's color and you'll start accumulating points. In order to keep getting points, you have to defend the puck from the other players who are trying to touch it and turn it to their color. This game mode can get quite hectic at times.

Power Surge

Locales: The Deep, Monsoon of Doom

In this game mode, you must run over a power source to collect some power and then bring it back to your base. The catch is, whenever the other players hit you, they'll drain some of your power. This mode plays kind of like a modified version of Capture the Flag.

Shockball

Locales: The Broiler, The Deep

This game mode plays a lot like Hot Potato, with someone starting off carrying the "Shockball" In order to get rid of it, the player needs to bump into another player. When the timer reaches zero, the Shockball will explode, causing massive damage. The game continues until there is only one player left standing.
