Help Leo get an Oscar!
We all know that Leonardo Dicaprio is long overdue an Oscar win, and if he doesn't take home the statue this year all faith in the Academy will be lost. So for those of us frustrated over Leo’s lack of Oscar recognition, a fantastic new online game has been created where you can help DiCaprio in his quest to bag that elusive gold statue.
Leonardo DiCaprio’s quest for an Oscar has inspired an online game.
Created by The Line, Leo's Red Carpet Rampage is an 8-bit, arcade style platform game, where you can play as DiCaprio and chase down that Oscar. As you run after the gold down the red carpet you can jump over Leo’s many obstacles, including paparazzi, Lady Gaga and of course that Titanic iceberg.
You also get to race against Leo’s fellow Best Actor nominees, with Michael Fassbender as Steve Jobs, Bryan Cranston as Dalton Trumbo, Eddie Redmayne as Lili Elbe and even Matt Damon in his spacesuit from The Martian all depicted.

But it’s all not as easy as it sounds, the game gets trickier in the bonus round when you have to find the black Oscar nominee.
This year DiCaprio is nominated for his fourth Oscar, for his portrayal of frontiersman Hugh Glass in The Revenant.
Many observers (and fans) believe that this could finally be Leo’s year, after missing out on taking home an award in 1993, 2005, 2007 and most recently, for The Wolf of Wall Street in 2014.
