Endless Road 

 

When Endless Road first came out on the iPhone/iPod Touch I played it. I was too busy with games that cost money to devote mental energy to this free app. We play a car in Endless Road. This car is driving down the road. Pavement is placed in front of us, and it falls off behind us. So there is a sweet spot to be in.

Staying in that sweet spot should be a breeze right? There are other cars in your way, pits, things that slow you down, speed you up, and other obstacles. Staying right where you need to be in Endless Road can be extremely difficult.

I noticed two reactions to Endless Road. There are those that got into this game, and played it again and again. There are others who gave up due to the difficulty. I stuck it out every single frustrating minute. And now I can write this review to assist you in your download decision.

Since Endless Road is a free app it is constantly trying to get you to pay it money for upgrades. You can earn most of these by playing for countless hours. Endless Road also wants access to your Facebook and Twitter so it can spam all of your friends. Playing free games means you have to consent to allow them to freely advertise to those you know. This must generate some kind of a return or companies would not do it.

The colors in Endless Road are bland, the game play is actually boring, and it is way too easy to die. The sounds and music are good. They really shine in this little hand held video game. Cars change color depending on their speed. Their models are not the greatest to look at though. Animations can be chopping, and swiping controls do not always work.

The iTunes market place has plenty of runner games on it. Many of them are better than Endless Road. If you don’t believe me then you can download this app and try it for yourself. I welcome any feedback, especially if you absolutely love this little car racer title. I also welcome feedback from anyone who is not impressed with Endless Road.
