Set against the backdrop of Chicago, the game opens with a heist by the character played by Aamir Khan. He then needs to dodge the crime-fighting duo comprising ACP Jai Dixit and Ali (Abhishek Bachchan and Uday Chopra). What ensues is a thrilling, action-packed chase on super bikes through the mean streets of Chicago. To win, players have to overcome heavy traffic and dodge obstacles, collect coins and achieve the maximum score.
If you play sharp and smart, you can arm yourself with cool power-ups. While the powerful
Sonic Pulseweapon will blow away everything in your path, the
Shield protects you from traffic and bombs. Players can use the
Nitro Boost to achieve maximum speed and leave others in a trail of dust. Apart from the cool bike and suit upgrades, Power-Ups can help you improve your score and climb the Leaderboard.
Hang on! There's more. Starting 10th November, Microsoft and Dhoom 3 are partnering to launch a nationwide Windows Phone Dhoom 3 contest for college students. And guess what? The winner - yes you guessed it right - gets to meet Aamir Khan in person!
