Glad to see it get the AA treatment. macplash Well-Known Member Apr 17, 2014 2,645 1,103 113 Male 3D artist Munich, Germany #4 macplash, Apr 10, 2022 How do I participate in the leaderboards? It says I need to complete the run first. Does it mean I have to finish the whole run somehow? Isn’t it enough to try and score at least some points to be eligible to enter the leaderboards? I’m not familiar with game mechanics in endless runners. I don’t think I’ve played any before. Thanks in advance for clarification. Asp Well-Known Member Aug 3, 2017 769 196 43 #5 Asp, Apr 10, 2022 Looks like the global leaderboards are not registering at present. However, playing offline or airplane mode works fine for recording your own best scores. macplash likes this. macplash Well-Known Member Apr 17, 2014 2,645 1,103 113 Male 3D artist Munich, Germany #6 macplash, Apr 10, 2022 @Asp you’re right. With airplane mode enabled the game shows my best run immediately. After going back online it just disappears. Thanks. I thought it was me missing something. Glad to know the problem isn’t on my end. Asp Well-Known Member Aug 3, 2017 769 196 43 #7 Asp, Apr 12, 2022 Today’s update has fixed the global leaderboard. I’m in 8,497th place!

Not that great, but I didn’t use any boosters yet. I’m currently saving up those red coins to purchase coin doubler. The game’s quite fun, but some achievements are just ridiculous and I don’t believe those are humanly possible to unlock. Btw, are we friends on Game Center? Asp Well-Known Member Aug 3, 2017 769 196 43 #9 Asp, Apr 13, 2022 It’s amazing how expert some players are, looking at the top high scores in the tens of millions. Saving for the coin doubler looks worthwhile though 500 red coins will take some time. I’ve lost track of how Game Centre works since the app disappeared, but I’m under the name of Ganj1n if you know how to add friends. macplash Well-Known Member Apr 17, 2014 2,645 1,103 113 Male 3D artist Munich, Germany #10 macplash, Apr 14, 2022 @Asp I’ve saved 493 red coins so far, so I’m getting there. Coin doubler is going to help with upgrades and purchases of boosters eventually. After that there’s another 250 red coins required for one free revive which is essential for chasing high scores. Last but not least, there’s bunch of characters available for red coins, but those are the lowest priority at the moment. The game’s quite fun, so I don’t mind spending some time grinding. Looks like the only way I can add you as a friend on Game Center is by sending request via iMessage which requires your email or phone number. So if you’re willing to share either of those, feel free to send me a PM here on TA with your details.

So I bought coin doubler and I’m currently halfway through to buying one permanent revive. So this reward was such a surprise. Asp likes this. JasonLL Well-Known Member Feb 21, 2014 546 106 43 Male #14 JasonLL, Apr 16, 2022 The Apple Arcade version seems to have buggy boss battles. I’ve tapped the screen right on the bullseye and I get a fail way too many times. With the original f2p version I don’t remember having that issue at all. Was never the biggest fan of the boss battles, even when it was working normally, now it’s just even more annoying. macplash Well-Known Member Apr 17, 2014 2,645 1,103 113 Male 3D artist Munich, Germany #15 macplash, Apr 17, 2022 @JasonLL I learned to double tap wherever on the screen in the right moment instead of one tapping on the bullseye. Works much better for me. What bugs me more is the fact there are only 2 bosses? Or are there more unlocked later in the game? JasonLL Well-Known Member Feb 21, 2014 546 106 43 Male #16 JasonLL, Apr 17, 2022 Thank you. Will try the double tap method. I believe there are only two bosses in the game. Despite not really caring for the boss battles Sonic Dash is my favorite Sonic runner. The sequel IMO doesn’t have the charm as the original. (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
