Under rating threshold (show) How the hell do I use afterburners? Do I shake my keyboard, mouse, monitor, or tower?

Under rating threshold (show) I seriously doubt this game actually has a rating of 4.2. Kongregate users can typically see right through this ridiculous money-grubbing. This site and its corporate partners must be getting desperate to try to use *this* game to draw income, since there's nothing right with it. Audio's bad, controls are laggy, game is buggy, upgrades are way too expensive (see: money-grubbing), and did I mention the money-grubbing? The game sweats ads and desperation from every pore.

Under rating threshold (show) As fantastic as developers think their games are, when greed take over, a good game becomes average. stop grabbing for creds and put just a bit more work into the game. 1/5

Under rating threshold (show) This game is awful. The audio's repetitive and often grating. Gameplay's rough, unpleasant and there's more luck than should be involved in a running game. Pretty much everything's overpriced, so unless you spend real life money, you'll be grinding for a LONG time to get just about anything. And of course, the constant "reminders" of what you can spend your hard earned cash on is unreasonably persistent. I realize the developers need money, but real life cash purchases should be an option, not a necessity to progress through the game.1/5. How this horrid game got 4.2 is beyond me. Only way I can imagine it got a rating like that is Gamespot tampering with the ratings somehow. I realize everyone has different tastes in games, but there's no way the general consensus of the Kongregate community is that this is one of the greatest games on the site.

Under rating threshold (show) The game is bugged for me so that Fred constantly leans right. I can't go full left or straight, and I truly can't think of any way this could be more annoying. Oh hey, begging for kreds too.

Under rating threshold (show) I'm gonna have to agree with the rest of the people here regarding the microtransactions. I'm not against the principle, I know you want to make money, but reminding me every three runs to buy something? Nuh-uh. Moreover, it becomes pretty clear that after a while, the prices are way higher than the amount of gold coins I can collect, so it's pretty clear that they're waiting for somebody's patience to run thin and they'll just pull out their wallets for the bonuses. It's a pretty standard (yet slightly humorous) running game otherwise. If you tone down the reminders, lower the prices a little, and have more worlds instead of just 3 worlds (with one that requires money), then you might have a solid title. 3/5

Under rating threshold (show) If you played that ninja runner game that kinda sucked and thought "I wish the graphics and physics were worse and also I'd like to be a ginger kid instead of a ninja", then this is the game for you!

Under rating threshold (show) so start the game "spend money?" ok..well guess its fair to advertise...playing eh it isn't a bad game..beat level 10...hey either grind for MANY hours to play the next stages or spend money < enjoy the 1 star and this is why i wish kongregate would put a stop to these "premium" shop games

Under rating threshold (show) Average, uninspired gameplay, constant begging for Kreds, upgrades take too long through gameplay to force purchase with Kreds (see begging for Kreds). Basically Temple Run without the temples and with more begging for Kreds.

Under rating threshold (show) Geeze when the hell did I fall back into the 90s? This game is like shareware, I'm impressed the loading icon wasn't a little floppy disk with all these nag ads. I hate that a few of the ads have no way to close the ad without going back to the shop screen either. "Want to get more lives?" and you can only push ok.

Under rating threshold (show) Not a terrible game, but the devs didn't port this very well to web. Clearly a game meant for mobile. They didn't even bother to change the mobile specific text/controls: "Shake your Device to Use"... Tsk Tsk

Under rating threshold (show) don't get me wrong,i understand devs need to eat too but SERIOUSLY you ask for money before you even get to the main menu a lot of people get instantly turned off from excessive begging going so far as to quit the game entirely,you have a pretty fun game here but you might get some more players (and thus widening the pool of potential customers) by tuning it down a bit

Jul. 23, 2014

Under rating threshold (show) A game that rewards skill with locking further levels until you A. Grind mind-numbing amounts of skullies or B. Pay your own money which you probably grinded in your real life job to get. Hmmmm. I choose NEITHER! Medium badge and goodbye. Shitty pay to play. It can't call itself a real game, 1/5.

Under rating threshold (show) If i remeber correctly this was a game ment to be bought on steam. making it free to play was a great thing, but here on Kongregate people dont like to be asked to pay for any thing. I love this game, its challenging and over all very fun, i personally wont invest any money to look like a ninja , but i my buy a level pack because of how much fun im having with this game.
