    Run Roo Run is one of the most enjoyable experiences you can have on this particular platform, and probably the best dollar you'll spend for a long, long time.

    Run Roo Run is simple, clean fun paired with controls and gameplay that suit everyone from the newest of gamers to the most hardcore of platforming fan; a wonderfully broad and compelling package.

    Roo doesn't have a crazy hook to distinguish itself from a billion other platformers in the App Store, but its quality sets it apart.

    5th Cell have been known for their inventive ideas on handheld systems for a while now, and with this fun micro-platformer and great idea for adding extra content, their legacy continues. Fans of endless runners looking for something new and willing to experiment with a game with set levels will definitely want to check this out.

    Run Roo Run looks, sounds and plays great. It's another great example of simple one-button controls used to create a game experience with a surprising amount of depth. Funky difficulty issues aside, both hardcore and casual gamers will find a lot to love in 5th Cell's latest.

    It's becoming a 5th Cell tradition: strong ideas compromised by erratic level design and structural weaknesses. One day, the developer will find the right balance to support its undeniable creativity, but sadly, it hasn't found it here.
