“Many have tried. Many have failed. Do you have what it takes to be a hero?” is the tag-line with which a little free online game presents itself to you.

The name of the game is Shopping Cart Hero. It features a little shopping cart and a funny looking stick figure. The goal of the game is to run downhill with the cart, jump high and propel yourself as far as possible, do funny tricks and land correctly.

At the end of each jump, you earn a number of points based on your performance which you can use to buy in-game upgrades such as improved wheels for your shopping cart as well as more propelling power for your next jump.

Developed in 2009 by the folks at MonkeyWantBanana.com who have a history of creating fun and addicting free online games, Shopping Cart Hero is no exception. The game enjoys great popularity and is being played online hundreds of thousands of times each month!

The game is available in Flash format and is playable in your web browser but it’s also available as an iPhone and iPod Touch application on iTunes. The iPhone / iPod Touch version costs $0.99 to download and play and it’s worth every cent. Imagine guiding the cart with the gyroscopic feature of your iPhone!

If you enjoyed playing the game, you will be happy to know that the developers at MonkeyWantBanana.com have rolled out a sequel which features improved graphics, better game-play, more upgrades, more tricks and more fun!

The game is high score enabled so you can present your score to friends or the entire world in online leader-boards and see how well you’ve done!
