Summer game tip: SpeedRunners
It's Summer! Which is great for some people but absolutely unbearable for other people. So I try to find some games for you to play during this hot and often boring season for gamers. I start with a popular game and that's for free now on Xboxlive if you're a gold member on the Xbox One. I'm talking of course about SpeedRunners!
What is SpeedRunners?
A simple idea really, you and three other people or bots race on a screen and try to beat the others by getting so far in the lead that the others go off screen and explode. Eventhough this is a 2D side scrolling type of game it does look pretty good and it's a lot of fun! You can pick one of several runners and some are quite ridiculous, yes I'm looking at you Falcon (the guy in the chicken suit)! The race is pretty dynamic with jumps, boosts and your grappling hook that can give you an extra boost or help you reach new paths for a short cut. What really makes the game fun are the power items that help you screw over the other runners or help yourself into the lead. You can freeze them with the freeze ray, bomb them with the explosive or the rockets, use the golden hook to pull someone backwards while you boost forward and then there's also the drill that ploughs through other players and makes you invulnerable for a short time.
What makes this game so much fun to play?
It's fun because you can play it on your own or with friends, what I really like about it is that you can play with your friends next to you on the couch where you share the same screen. That's something you don't see that much anymore and it's really fun when you can play games with your friends without having to both be online. You can also play against bots and determine how difficult they will be to beat. You can pick your own levels, your own rules and your own style for your runner. You unlock new things if you keep playing which really motivates you to keep going. I've unlocked all the racers, mostly thanks to the story mode, and now I'm busy unlocking all the maps that were created by fans. These maps are by the way also quite impressive and fun to play on! What's so good about this game is that it's fun to play on your own or with friends, so whatever you prefer the game can deliver and it doesn't take a lot of space on your harddrive as well. It's the perfect game for some fun and relaxing gameplay. I love playing this game after putting several hours in another game and just want to enjoy a more peaceful yet fun experience in a game. Feel free to check it out and hopefully you have just as much fun with this game as me!
