World of Mayhem certainly had a lot of great nods to the back catalogue of Looney Tunes, with different characters based on how they were depicted in the shorts, and the usual 'toon-logic' attacks such as dropping anvils and whatnot.

Still, at the very least, if you're curious about giving World of Mayhem a chance for yourself, you can check out our list of the best teams in World of Mayhem. Just remember that the game is being delisted on August 23rd, so you've got a limited time left to download it!
Of course, if you'd rather see what else is actually releasing rather than being closed down on mobile, that's good too. Why not take a look at our latest list of the five new mobile games to try this week and see some of the more interesting launches this past week?
