Leave a Review Temple Run 2
Once Pretty Good, Now Sad Overall.
Nothing like having a challenge that is impossible to attain.
Daily Quests Change, as the name indicates. Only problem is they are often unobtainable. For instance, one of the six from today’s challenge is “Sky Summit Quest, Collect 500 Coins in the Minecart.” I’ve played the game off and on all day, satisfied the other five daily quests but cannot even get this Sky Summit map to load the minecart. I’ve run 11,500 meters without using a continue, collected 4,776 coins and have 6,560,190 points but can’t access the mine/minecart. I’ve run the water run so many times I’m sick of it, done the log run as many times BUT cannot get to the mine no matter what I do. Thus, I’ll let it pass, quit trying, put this game down and play something else. May just delete it as it’s happened before but took days before the minecart would load. I won’t be doing that again.
I suggest you find a game that actually makes the goals achievable, this one does not.Show lessFails2Work
Good, but too easy.
So I’ve decided to come back to temple run after a while and there definitely has been some positive changes. I love the new maps, skins, and characters that have been made high quality. The overall gameplay is still nice, however I wish the character would accelerate more than its current top speed. Unless I’m mistaken the maximum speed seems to be around 2500 meters at which point you stop accelerating. Considering this maximum speed isn’t that hard unless you make a mistake, it gets a little boring. I think it would be more interesting if the player kept accelerating because it would make the higher scores seem more rewarding and prevent people from getting on the leaderboards out of spending lots of time instead of skill. Otherwise, this game and the elements with it are pretty solid. I like this game and would definitely give it 5 stars with this change.Show lessDndnfnje
Boring
So I have been playing this game for 2 days and it got so boring. You just swipe up,down,left, and right. There is no excitement in the game at ALL! And I don’t even know how to work the power up bar. Give some more instruction than just how to move and jump and stuff. Honestly, I would rather have DIY Fashion Star than this and don’t get me started on how horrific that app is. I am just saying that the app is really boring and not boring enjoyable. And what is up with all the ads now? If do one run I have to sit threw a 2 minute ad without a skip. What the heck is that about? Make an update or new skins or something to make it less boring. And the other places shouldn’t have to be purchased. If I could rate this zero stars I would. I fact I am going to delete this app right now! DELETED👎😡Show lessyfgxfxhvubhrxrx
The monkey is still the same...
I havnt played the game in years then I come back and there’s all these new places.
But in all of them Ive noticed that the giant monkey never changes (other than colors or looking dumb). I think it would look far better if you actually had different things chasing you. So like for the jungle maybe a giant tiger or something and then for the desert a giant snake and for the snow place a yeti or something. But the sky place should keep it.
These would all match there places and temples very well. It may seem useless but it would really make the places seem different. Instead of seeing a giant monkey chasing you every time which makes the stages feel the same. Also the fact that it’s coming out of a giant snake head or something which doesn’t make much sense.Show lessZay....
Updates ruin your string, and No Ads is a RIP-OFF
Originally this was my favorite game. As time went on they made more and more variations and maps for the game, which was fine. Lately, however, now that they’re on the money grubbing bandwagon, I noticed fewer coins on runs when you needed them. And as if that wasn’t enough with all the money they must make on selling people gems and coins, they’ve added aggravating ads. I must admit that I tried to buy out of the ends and for over two weeks they still kept showing even after I received my notice that payment was received. However I must amend my previous review because they did contact me through email, and the developers gave me directions which did in fact remove the aggravating ads. The developers have since asked me to revise my review, but I had been ill for a while. The review is deserved, and I have brought it back up to a five star. I always did love the game I just hated the ads. And now for a very reasonable price, you can get rid of them too thank you so much for helping me with this problem. I apologize for the delay in correcting my review, but I have had some health issues which thankfully seem to be subsiding. It’s a great game!Show lessDon4421
Developer Response
We're sorry to hear the ad removal stopped working for you. What is your ticket request number? We will be certainly look into this issue.Updated challenges are way too difficult
I have loved Temple Run since 2011, and it has been one of the only apps I’ve had consistently on every iPhone and iPod touch I’ve owned. The graphics of the new update are beautiful, and they give you more and more features, outfits, and characters to unlock all the time. The app has aged very well. However, my only complaint is that the global challenges have become increasingly difficult, to the point that it’s not fun for me to try and meet the goal anymore. They either require to run an absurd amount of meters in one round without falling or using a continue, or the require sheer screenplay of you playing for hours and hours to gain any kind of achievement on the goal tier. The global challenges have always been fun, and sometimes are a real challenge from me. But the last 3 or 4 are just insane. And this is coming from someone who has played for 7 years and has a high score of 19 million without using a continue. I will still play the game when I’m bored, but no longer have any desire to attempt the global challenges. Bummer.Show lessme02655
Please read!!!
I love this game don’t get me wrong yes it is addictive to play but one thing that has stopped me from playing this game is advertisements every update it seems to be getting worse and worse so I stopped playing because I’m one of those players who easily gets annoyed by too many advertisements this would be a 5 star app easily but I can’t give this app those 5 stars just because of too many advertisements but if you guys made it so people wouldn’t get bombarded with advertisements at the end of every run I would really appreciate that and I would even be willing to give this app the 5 stars it deserves but one thing I noticed the really old version of this app didn’t have any advertisements I don’t know what made you developers think it was okay to start advertising different apps unless you developers are plotting an end to temple run I usually only start to see this many advertisements when developers are planning on ending the use of a game I saw that with a Batman game I use to have and now it no longer exists so please narrow down the advertisements a little bit so I have some hope that this app will not be discontinued I love this app and I would hate to see this app come to an endShow lessToy Dogwatch
No gameplay innovation
The first time through the most recent level I ran for like 15, 20 minutes till it was going to require 3 gems to respawn and I was too bored to do so. I love this game and it’s great and all but after all these years, something needs to change in the game mechanics, not just the visual appearance. I really enjoy switching over to Temple Run Oz sometimes for this reason, moving between the different levels within the game and experiencing different kinds of challenges in each is more fun for me. For example, I like how that game has obstacles that appear out of nowhere, the different kinds of power ups, and the transitional areas in the clouds. It has a really good variety of balancing tasks too and I think that being able move between levels without having to exit your run keeps me on there way longer. The Brave version also had some innovation with the archery segments. I really wish this game would change it up more, there’s so much unmet potential. Sadly once you get the hang of it it’s just sort of meh.Show lessLilsunshine217
One of the best games in the world but.....
I’ve been playing temple run for years now, I’ve played both TR & TR2. I love the fact that you get to run endlessly and there are cool things to purchase, including characters. But there is this one tiny problem which has been bugging me, the fact that coins become useless after some point in the game. Like I’ve said, I’ve been playing this game for years but now that I’ve unlocked every upgrade and every character the coins that I collect every run are gonna be useless. The only reason I collect the coins is so I can use my power up but after that it’s of no use to me. Of course I can use the head-starts but I’m not that kind of player. I hope on the next update I can use my coins for something more productive than head-starts. But other than this minor problem this game was built to satisfy the players and can be played anytime and any where, no matter your mood or age. This is a game you won’t wanna miss out on.Show lessartisticdevil6801
Love it, but...
I’ve been playing this game since it was released and had tons of fun with it (my current daily challenge streak is 1328). Gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because of a couple of complaints about recent changes:
1) Gem bonus spinner disappeared with the last update; please bring it back!! (I want full value for my nonexistent virtual gems!)
2) Ads have been getting more intrusive/annoying over time. I would be quite happy to pay $5 for an ad-free version of the game; please consider changing the revenue model.
I continue to admire the game’s graphics (though I wish they wouldn’t fiddle with established maps - Frozen Shadows was quite nice before all the banners and sword-hilt sculptures and such were added in, and I thought the first year’s Spooky Summit ghosts were more fun than the updated ones with people’s faces).
But these are minor quibbles from a long-term player. It’s a fun game and I’m looking forward to a 2000-day streak!!Show lesspluralzedalpha
