TA Plays: 'Outland Games' - A Running Man Runner

posted March 7th, 2013 12:00 PM EDT by Brad Nicholson in iPad Games, iPhone games, iPod touch games, News, Runner, TA Plays, Universal, Upcoming Games

If you're into runners, tonight's release Outland Games might be up your alley. It's a 2D, side-scrolling runner set deep in the Monday Night Combat Universe. In the game, you play as a contestant on a reality TV show that tasks you with running for your life. As you run, you'll have to do the usual: pick up coins, avoid obstacles, and kill stuff.

This one has a couple of things going for it. For one, its combo mechanic, which allows you to string together attacks and jumps, give the action a unique kind of locomotion. Also, the equipment system offers some pretty funny gear. For example, this afternoon, Eli and I used a candy cane and chef hat to defeat the endless robot hordes.

If you'd like to get a closer look before Outland launches tonight, just check out what we've got below. It'll hit at 99¢ as a Universal app, by the way.

    Plain endless runners become boring after 5 minutes. Doesn't it have checkpoints or another game-mode?

    I bought Outland Games this morning and i'm already boring. There are no questq or missions. You just run, fight and get coins. Armors and weapon are just here to wear a new skin. There are capacities :/

      Yes, the game looks really plain. You just run for no reason.

      Glad I passed on this. Check out God of Blades instead. The only runner I play.

    Yeaah, another runner, exactly what I was looking for.

      At this point, I'm convinced all the endless runner coverage is just some kind of cruel joke.
