    This game is great because it's easy and hard at the same time. Running on the tracks, collecting coins, and jumping over trains is quite entertaining.

    Un buen juego, me gusta lo práctico y entretenido que es, recuerdo que cuando era menor lo jugaba. Me gustaba mucho y ahora también, un juego súper divertido para toda la familia.

    I like to play Subway Surfers. The graphics are well-designed and the sound is average. The loading time is fast and the goals are challenging.

    The Danish running game isn't innovative, exhilaratingly immersive, nor original (it's just a shameless rip-off of the autochthonous running game, Temple Run, plus it feels like its glamourizing graffiti and annihilating previous train safety rules), but it's sheer, unadulterated fun, and the visuals are eye-popping graphics at its best.

    Of all the running games I've played, this is one of the best. I cannot understand the negative reviews given by other users. They clearly haven't played anything worse.

    Un juego super divertido de celular, ideal para pasar el rato mientras estas viajando o en tiempo libre en la facultad/trabajo.

    Fun game. Controls a bit clunky, minus 1 point. Good graphics, fun landscapes, fun characters. Almost a perfect game.

    An absolute blast and can get very addicting, but you run out of things to do quite fast.

    Subway surfers as a game of endless running genre, is a good choice to play among the group of other endless running game. The visual of the game is really good giving a bright and vibrant feeling, that instantly captures attention of the player. The trains, the hurdles that come in between the rail track, and also the power boosters, these are all the factors that highlight the visuals ofSubway surfers as a game of endless running genre, is a good choice to play among the group of other endless running game. The visual of the game is really good giving a bright and vibrant feeling, that instantly captures attention of the player. The trains, the hurdles that come in between the rail track, and also the power boosters, these are all the factors that highlight the visuals of the game. The rail track at the start has a surrounding of a place where people are living by, the birds flying, the shops and houses can also be seen followed by different locations as we proceed in the game. The sound of the game is also good, it somehow gives the feeling of a comic movie, like the sound in the beginning of the game made by the grumpy inspector, and the sound when player gets caught. The sound when the player collects coins is also very interesting, not forgetting the slight sound of the train passing. The story revolves around the player, a grumpy inspector and his dog. The story line is simple and the way it is portrayed is amazing. It is engaging, because of the constant hurdles and rewards that occur in the path. To talk about the characters, the main character Jake is visually really interesting, by looking at the character one can instantly know that the boy is young, mischievous yet funny. The gestures used by this character are really amazing like the way he looks here and there just to see that no one is near him to eat food or the way he asks the user to come back and play the game using the facial and hand gestures. These characteristics make this character to stand out. There are many other characters that we can choose and play with not forgetting about the various types of hoverboards which can be gained by spending some coins that we earned while playing the game. When we play the game there are several missions that have to be achieved, and also some achievements that the player gets during the game. These things, keep the player engaged in the game. the game play is simple, touch the screen, move it wherever you want, makes it easier for the players to play. There are a few things that I would like to suggest, if the music becomes more realistic like the sound the train when passed by and a bright music being played for few seconds after the player gets a powerup would make the game more engaging and funny. It will make the player feel the game, and will excite the player. Overall, it is a good game that has an easy gameplay, with a simple storyline, interesting characters and gestures, vibrant visual and a nice sound.

    From all the endless runner games, this one is your best bet. The graphics aren't amazing but it doesn't matter

    Это одна из первых игр моего детства. И, несмотря на возраст и недостатки, о которых я сейчас узнаю от других, она не кажется мне плохой

    the game is about a guy who runs away from a train security guard after vandalized the side of the train with a spray can.
    the game has minimal story, basically an 'excuse story'
    the game has a replayability factor to the game which is good for a mobile game to survive.
    the game gets boring [especially during long road trips]
    8/10 [nearly good]    … Expand

    Subway Surfers is an awesome running game, probably the best one available on the App Store. And it's free.

    This isn't innovative or the first of its kind, but Surfers does expand and evolve what we've come to know as the endless runner.

    Subway Surfers never jumps the tracks, but it never goes off the rails either.
