Endless runner games have taken on many incarnations the past years. You have the early incarnations through arcade games like Donkey Gong to side scrollers like Super Mario to the current generation of Temple Runs and the like to movie companion runners like Brave, Iron Man 3, Guardians of the Galaxy, etc. But have you ever played an endless runner with a boy made from knitted sack?
Meet Sackboy from the award-winning LittleBigPlanet Playstation game. The object of the game is to run as fast as you can to escape from the Goo and the Negativitron. If you're familiar with the PS game on which it is based on, then these words will not be of another language to you. Characters and places from LittleBigPlanet make their appearances in this game as well.
As you let Sackboy run through his handcrafted world, you can change and customize his costume and collect stickers along the way to unlock prizes. You can also have several power-ups and upgrades to help him get more points. If you're feeling competitive, you can challenge your friends and check out the leaderboards, as long as you sign it through your Facebook account.
You can download Run Sackboy Run! for free from the Google Play Store. But there are a few in-app purchases like Save Me Hearts (to get more lives) and power-ups. Now if you don't want to "accidentally" buy stuff or if someone else will use your phone to play Sackboy, better deactivate the one-click buy setting.
