the goat of run games
One of the best Flash games, still actually pretty fun and better compared to some games released recently.
Such a banger of a kids game
3.5☆ - Somehow better than Run 2. Nostalgia +1☆.
This game straight up does not run or function at all. great if you love playing games at 2fps
surprisingly life-ruining
just 100 percented this in geography
I ran (3)
this is where speedrunning came from
Run 3? More like Runs at 3 fps.
I think in the flurry of people joking about this series both ironically and unironically, and its infamy as THE cool math game of all time, we forget the really good design that actually went into it. The fact that dying immediately sends you back to the start of the level is really taken for granted, because there are some games that just have atrociously long death cutscenes, and then menus that pop up, and then you have to wait for it to load so you can try again... plus the music is bangin and the aliens are cute.
Didn't enjoy it as much as the first game. Not sure why, I think I liked the isolation from the first game, just living in a geometric world. There were other characters and I didn't like their inclusion that much. The platforming was fine but I didn't feel much playing it.
Probably the best flash game I've played. The base gameplay loop is really fun and there's a lot of content here.
Only fun if you're at school
THIS is the game that ate up my playtime throughout elementary school
Ok, obviously this isn't that bad, but this game has always pissed me off. I distinctly remember being on CoolMathGames in 2017, in Year 9, having spent an entire childhood committing the first 2 games to memory and being ecstatic that a new one had released (blissfully unaware of course that these games exist out of the confines of that website and this had in fact been out for years before being published then on that site). I fired it up and immediately thought, verbatim, "Oh damn this is some shitty fangame or something, it's so floaty and feels awful, no way he'd make this after 2." It took years before I learned that this was an official sequel, and is also inexplicably the most popular. It pisses me off to no end that this game drops the razor precision and fast pace of the last game, as well as losing the curation of the level design entirely. Instead, we've regressed back to the boxes that were already testing the limits of their enjoyability by the end of the first game, and changing the number of sides is just not enough to shake it up. Worst of all, this game contains an entirely obfuscated progression system wherein it's virtually impossible to figure out how many levels are left in the game, let alone how you go about unlocking them. I would bet a good amount of money 99% of people who think they've beaten this game missed most of the levels. I don't even think I've played them all between the 3 or 4 times I've tried to finish this! It's still fun enough moment to moment, but it's distressing how many problems this game invents for itself that the dev smartly avoided previously. The series did not need cutscenes, let me tell you.
This one is the worst one :/
