A new app gives fans of the Barcelona star a chance to take control of their hero on mobile devices in "Temple Run"-style escapades.
Lionel Messi can do extraordinary things with a football, but they have not extended to saving the world — until now.
QB9 Entertainment, an Argentine company that recently acquired rights to design video games around the Barcelona star, has launched "Messi Runner," a "Temple Run"-style game with a soccer twist.
With the game available as an app on Apple and Android mobile devices, players control Messi as he runs through different scenarios, leaping over obstacles and firing shots to destroy monsters.
