    A great take on endless runners

    Wow, this game is awesome! It's so much better than Subway Surfers. Between this game and Relic Run there really is no need to have any other endless runners on my device.

    Well I'm not really too sure what happened between the last time I played and now, but I'm getting a framerate of about 2 frames a second (if that) on my iPhone 5.

    After re-booting and re-starting my 5s, 8.2, the game either freezes or has a very serious lag after each play. Maybe it's my ad-blocker while on my (good) wifi? Are there ads at all?
    Switching to airplane mode and the game runs fine...hmm.

    This runner offers a very nice mechanic and an interesting combo system with responsive controls. The art style is nice but the music could get tiresome soon. (Haven't tried out to play my own, yet)

    The game's still very young on me and i have no idea of how far my skills will bring me, but at first sight, all those iap's don't look very inviting and rewarding. Seems i'm getting pretty much of nothing for a few dollars. Syntheticvoid wrote about this last year, and i'm in the same boat. Also, no coin doubler. Pity.

    Did they change anything to the better SV, if you can recall?

    Edit: forgot to say that the music is way too loud compared to the sfx sounds. Is it really that difficult to programm volume/sfx sliders?
    Oh and playing with 3G/4G seems to work as well.

    Edit2: deleted, re-installed, re-booted, same frame/freeze issues while on wifi.

    Pretty good responsive runner!

    BRIM was going to be amazing and I knew it from the start. But there is one MAJOR ISSUE, though!
    Dear devs, please make it run at 60 FPS! Thanks.

    Looks good looks like it's got ideas other devs have had and put them in here. Made by a company like this I'd expect it to be supported and updated too so that certainly makes it worth a go to me.

    Why isn't this game on the hot new games list?

    Anyone got freeze issue? I already tried reboot my device, but seems the game bit laggy.
    Here's the screenshot
    I played the game on iPad Air, ios 8.2

    This game is wayyyy too fremium.... You'll have to pay 100s of dollars to even get a quarter of the epic gear. Especially the set you want? Good luck.

    The game is crazy fun though I just wish the iap weren't so bogus for a fremium.

    Yeah that would be a no... They haven't done anything with the IAP prices/payouts...

    After hitting level 18, I gave up because of the grind and inability to kill enemies with the strongest weapon available at that level (fully powered up), the enemies would still require 2 hits to kill, causing it to get backed up and pretty much instadeath. After numerous games of THAT, I deleted it

    Appreciated and thanks. Too bad because the game's growing on me.

    Nevermind the volume sliders. Without better voices, both early he and she have the same, there is absolutely no need for me to hear them better.

    Really enjoying the game so far! Much better than subway surfers...
    Would love to see more environments (and upgradable powerups) and a coin doubler though...

    Wow! This is really good! I love how the path branches out so that there are more than three lanes. The wall running and the ability to"climb" up by jumping from a wall run and then swiping over to get on top of the wall had saved my bacon a lot of times and really adds to the fun factor.

    The graphics are good and I enjoy the art style. The music is perfect and does a lot to add to the experience. (Most games have BGM that makes the game feel finished, but doesn't add much beyond that. The music in this game fits just right so that it becomes part of the adventure just as much as the environments.)

    One thing I really like is the dungeons. The entrances show up randomly and when you enter them you get a quest to complete while you're in there. At the end of the dungeon, you run through a golden treasure room to collect your loot before you head back into the main world. All of it is done fluidly without the game skipping a beat.

    I'm only up to level 7, so I can't attest to the difficulty at later levels (or if this game becomes "pay or die" later on, as has been mentioned in previous posts). I can say for now, though, that overall this is definitely one of the most enjoyable behind the back runners that I've ever played.

    I'm level 6 and about 5 or 6 goals in I get the message 'Game state corrupted, reverting to last Cloud Save' (or something along those lines). I get set back to the start of level 6 and lose everything I've gained, including an item I got from an onyx chest! Have tried deleting and reinstalling the game but same problem persists at the same point. Anyone else having this happen?

    Yep, happened to me twice now. The first time I lost a weapon, though I ended up getting it back coincidentally (or not?) after playing again. Second time I just lost xp and quest completions. If this happens again though I'm done. That's an inexcusable bug.
