Temple Run is an endless video game first released in August 2011 . It was developed by Imangi Studios and is currently available for download for Windows Phone , iOS , Android and Kindle Fire . The game is available free of charge and is financed through a freemium system. It occupies a leading position in the download statistics.
A successor version and two versions based on current movies have already appeared.
Gameplay
The game is about a character who is fleeing from " Evil Demon Monkeys " in a temple complex . As a player, you have to use the touchscreen to steer the figure to the left or right, but you can also control it by moving the device. You also have to jump up or slide them to avoid obstacles. If a mistake is made, such as running over a demarcation or into an abyss, the character dies and the game begins again.
The longer you manage to let the figure run, the more points you get. Coins can be collected along the way. These allow additional game content such as power-ups , other game characters or background images to be activated. It is possible to purchase the coins for real money. There are also certain goals, also known as “objectives”, such as walking a certain distance without collecting coins. If you achieve such a goal, the “multiplier” increases, which is a decisive factor in calculating the points. Thus you can get a higher high score with the same running distance. If all goals have been achieved and all additional game content has been acquired, the only task is to increase the high score.
