Wendy’s Just Released a Video Game Where You Can Win Fast Food

I won a medium fries by defeating a sinister robot that looked suspiciously similar to a McDonald’s french fry container.

Wendy’s has turned its red-headed mascot into a wisecracking warrior who battles evil french fry robots in a free mobile game called WendyQuest. The company announced the retro-style role-playing game on Nov. 4. The announcement came with a promotion where you can win codes in the game, which are redeemable for menu items like fries and burgers at Wendy’s locations.

WendyQuest is available to download on iOS and Android. Desktop users can get it through the Steam platform. Anyone can play the game, but the promotion is restricted to people who are 18 and up living in the US. 

You need to sign up for a Wendy’s account to redeem a code. While the food you can win is free, it requires you to buy something when you go.

“Wendy’s has been a part of gaming culture for years, including on Twitch, Fortnite and Feast of Legends, but WendyQuest is the brand’s first fully owned video game,” a spokesperson for Wendy’s said.

In 2019, Wendy’s partnered with the online multiplayer video game Fortnite, as well as the video-streaming platform Twitch, for various promotions featuring the company’s mascot. The company even released a rule book for a traditional tabletop roleplaying game the same year, called Feast of Legends, as a free download.

I downloaded WendyQuest, and my daughter and I played it for a while. The blocky graphics are reminiscent of the home-console video games of the late 1980s and early 1990s.
