About endless runner games

Your score is how far you got, and the rules rarely need a tutorial, so a run fits a spare minute and suits people who want something to pick up and put down. Some keep to simple one-touch controls and short runs, while others layer in missions, upgrades and characters that change how a run plays. They also differ in how much depth they offer, how often the game interrupts you and whether it works without a connection.

What to look for

  • Check how the controls respond, since taps and swipes need to feel immediate for a run to be fair.
  • Look at whether the game speeds up over time, because the difficulty curve is what keeps a run interesting.
  • See how the game makes money, such as ads between runs, optional purchases, or paid removal of interruptions.
  • Check whether progress and unlocked items save properly, so a lost run does not wipe out what you earned.
  • Find out if it plays offline, which matters when you want a run somewhere without a reliable connection.

How we rank

Apps are ranked by their Google Play rating (weighted by how many people rated them), their number of installs, how recently they were updated and how closely they fit the category. Only apps we've reviewed are included.
