If the controls were fixed where it's more playable, I would rate much higher. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2016-01-01, version 1.3.7* Neat little game works great with my Bluetooth controller ### 4/5 — Fun, with exceptionnally good sound effect. *2015-01-20, version 1.3.7* Jump, slide, attack...you all know these kind of games by now. This is another one of these, and it's pretty fine for what it is. It has great sound effects, looks good, plays well, and I love how the game doesn't even try hiding how much it's ripping off Star Wars. ### 4/5 — Great game *2014-11-18, version 1.3.7* Still a few bugs though it occasionally crashes when I try to start up but other then that I'm loving it especially the plasma sword owner manual tips ### 5/5 — EPIC GAME *2014-10-29, version 1.3.7* #BEST GAME EVER! It is super fun and has easy controls :) ### 5/5 — Amazing *2014-08-11, version 1.3.2* I entirely forget about this. When I saw it again, instantly got it again. ### 5/5 — DRWAPS *2014-08-06, version 1.3.2* Cool little game ### 5/5 — Fantastic! *2014-04-05, version 1.3.2* Thanks for making a game that's fun to play! Love the controls, art style, and music :) ### 4/5 — Boss *2014-02-14, version 1.3.2* Brilliant game I love it ### 5/5 — A Fantastic Runner *2013-12-03, version 1.3.2* DRWAPS is fun, plain and simple. The game is challenging, the controls are tight, and the upgrades are cool. There's so much to do. Well worth the price. ### 5/5 — Awesome fun *2013-11-22, version 1.3.1* Everything you want in an easy-to-pick-up, no-hassle game, yet with room to grow. Like the slicing animations and goofy touch without getting carried away. ### 5/5 — DWARPS *2013-10-28, version 1.3.1* Freaking Awesome I Love This Game no hidden fees just straight out grinding to gain XP I Play this all the time iPhone and iPad for hours And I personally spent hundreds on apps and this is my go to app I love this game more levels or a part 2 that's all I ask oh yeah nice on iPhone but play it on the iPad and you will appreciate ### 5/5 — Great Game *2013-09-22* This game reminds me of Robot Unicorn Attack. It's a bit more complex with a slide move and attack move, but it still captures that run-til-you-die mechanic in an entertaining way. The game will give you ads until you make an in app purchase (they have to make money somehow), the cheapest being $1. I suggest spending $2 for the xp-replicator instead. ### 4/5 — Pretty good *2013-09-18, version 1.3.1* A fun little level based runner. ### 5/5 — ^_^ *2013-08-24, version 1.3.1* Me gusta So much fun ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Get rid of game club *2020-04-19, version 1.5.7* This game used to be free to play not behind a paywall. I played the game probably 4 years ago and forgot about it, needles to say coming back I was very disappointed. ### 1/5 — Greedy! *2019-12-06, version 1.5.1* Subscription model, nearly $100/yr for a simple scroller with no online content or infrastructure dependency? Looks like another one I will be deleting. ### 1/5 — Constantly crashes *2018-08-09* Game is unplayable on iPhone 6s Plus. Screen keeps blanking out mid game and buttons stop working. **Developer response:** We’re pleased to announce Don't Run with a Plasma Sword has joined GameClub and has been updated to support all modern iOS devices.

Obnoxious means delete sans purchases. ### 1/5 — BORING *2013-04-03, version 1.3.1* This game is so boring like who would copy star wars plus SMOSH is soooooo much better. ### 1/5 — Don't waste your time *2013-02-27, version 1.3.0* By far, this is the worst game I've ever played. This game literally has absolutely nothing going for it. Between it's outdated graphics, the repetitiveness, and the high cost of upgrades... Just don't waste your time. Free or otherwise. ### 1/5 — Disappointing update *2012-12-03, version 1.2.9* I was anxious to try the difficulty settings since the highest difficulty setting gives a bonus to xp. But it seems you nerfed xp by a significant amount, as I am now getting half or less xp now that I was before this update. If it is this low on the highest difficulty setting, it must be really bad on the easiest setting. ### 1/5 — Don't know if it's good or not *2012-10-31, version 1.2.7* Broken on IPad3 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — DWARPS *2024-03-08* Freaking Awesome I Love This Game no hidden fees just straight out grinding to gain XP I Play this all the time iPhone and iPad for hours And I personally spent hundreds on apps and this is my go to app I love this game more levels or a part 2 that's all I ask oh yeah nice on iPhone but play it on the iPad and you will appreciate ### 5/5 — Dis game is my childhood *2023-10-12* Yes ### 5/5 — Nostalgic *2022-09-20, version 1.5.18* Such a good old game. Played it on iPad like 8 years ago. Found it on App Store today and it’s still maintained. Awesome. Thank you so much, developers of this game. ### 5/5 — DRWPS *2019-11-22* THAAAAAANK YOOOOOU! Thanks so much to everyone involved for adding this to TA's GameClub!! It's one of my absolute favorite endless runners ever! The controls are perfect, the mechanics are very well implemented, the player's inertia and movement in the world is done so incredibly great - it just FEELS fantastic while playing. The upgrades can be a bit costly, and all of my progress was wiped out with this update (even with it saved in the cloud) but I don't mind one bit, as this is a game that has tons of staying power, so chances are, I might just be purchasing new upgrades months from now. =D Yet again, another top notch pick for GameClub! ### 5/5 — Lol playing science I was 6 *2019-04-02, version 1.4.0* Older than 10 and still playing ### 5/5 — The best game since Polara *2019-02-11, version 1.4.0* Great Music and difficult runner. What more do you want ### 5/5 — get it *2018-11-18, version 1.4.0* get it it is sooooooooooooooooooooo! good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ### 5/5 — Super fun *2017-07-23, version 1.4.0* DOMAHGUD ITS SOO FUN! ### 5/5 — Great game *2017-01-18, version 1.4.0* Love Star Wars and I am glad you guys updated this ### 5/5 — Why 5 stars? *2016-04-08* First off the dev team is awesome. They care about their work and players and are communicative as well as more than willing to incorporate user feedback. This game is simply one of the best auto runners on the AppStore. The theme alone is fantastic. There's so many upgrades and cosmetic items you can get for your character. There are actual levels in a story mode but also endless modes that vary in the degree of difficulty. There is sooo much replayability with this game. The controls are actually spot on and I've not had any issues at all. This game really does deserve 5 stars. Oh and if you want to get extra xp to get some upgrades or a light saber color you can watch some opt in ads. Nothing forced. Well that's it. Thank you devs for continuing to support this game and for such a fun time. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
