A Gaming Diary
Dead Runner (iPhone)
Remember Deathchase on the Spectrum? Well, this is like that, only without any shooting.
You’re in a forest and there are nasty ghosts (or something) behind you, so you have to run away, tilting your iPhone to avoid trees.
Now, in real life you’d get slower and slower as you ran, until you fell over and were set upon by angry ghosts. In the game, though, you get faster and faster, as you might expect. There are two modes – a simple distance mode and a points-based one with glowing orbs to collect.
It’s all very simple, but it looks very nice indeed, the controls work perfectly well and it’s another brilliant little game to add to the iPhone’s near-infinite list of such titles. Perfect bite-sized gaming.
