But I wish also if you can update Boost2 which I have paid for it. It works nice, but I think u can make it even better! And acomplain! Despite of buying Add Remove in Kayos, still sometimes shows the adverts! Thank u ### 5/5 — Eğlenceli *2017-09-25, version 2.1* 👍 ### 5/5 — Cool game *2017-07-23* Very very very ### 4/5 — hoher Schwierigkeitsgrad *2017-07-20* Das Spiel ist gut. Bin gespannt, wann andere Entwicklerteams diese Idee übernehmen. Verbesserungsfähig ist, dass es an manchen Stellen meiner Meinung nach kein Weiterkommen gibt. ( Blöcke stehen so, dass man halt nicht durchkommt. ) Also weiter als 2000 Punkte bin ich nicht gekommen. Ich spiele allerdings auch erst seit 2 Tagen aktiv diese App. Diese Thesen sind selbstverständlich rein subjektiv zu betrachten und sollen nicht als Vorurteil dienen, diese App nicht zu laden. Immerhin ist sie gratis und verspricht ein innovatives Spielerlebnis. ### 5/5 — I ❤️ it *2017-05-17* I love ur game even though its soooooo triggering ### 4/5 — Good *2017-05-07* Considering this is free now, you can't go wrong. I am a big fan of Boost 2, so I wanted to try this one out too. The objective is to avoid the obstacles and get as far as you can, similar to Boost 2. When holding down on the screen, you will speed up and fill up a bar. The bar will slowly deplete once you stop holding. Once the bar is filled up a shield is activated until you hit an object. While the shield is active, you will continue with the faster speed. My only gripes with the game is that the hit boxes feel a little large and the gyro and touch controls are slightly clunky. Other than that, the game is great. The visuals are clean, and the gameplay is fast paced. Well done! ### 5/5 — Love it! *2017-03-25* Better than "Boost" 100%. Awesome! ### 5/5 — Spettacolo!! *2017-02-18, version 2.1* All'inizio può sembrare di nuovo uno di quei giochi retro'/indie che hanno già scassato i marroni sullo store. Invece si presenta un gioco per dinamica e grafica diversa. Ottimo passatempo accompagnato da un'ottima colonna sonora. Spettacolo!! ### 5/5 — Ecccezzzionale *2017-02-11, version 2.1* Stupefacente ### 5/5 — RaS *2017-01-15* Rien à signaler. Vous gérez la batterie de mon portable depuis 2012. ### 5/5 — 9/10 *2016-12-21* Cool game :3 ### 3/5 — Meh *2016-12-14, version 2.1* Not that bad ### 5/5 — Good game *2016-11-24, version 2.1* Thanks, it's a good game for me:) ### 5/5 — Simple Endless Runner *2016-11-08* A modern looking fast paced endless runner. ### 5/5 — Super! *2016-10-18* Wie beim Vorgänger zieht es einen hier in den "Tunnel", Mega gut. Like :) ### 3/5 — Не проходная *2016-10-02* На 5 запусков, потом надоело. Буст2 лучше ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Very bad *2020-01-22, version 2.1* Why did I have an advertisement? I paid 1 dollar. ### 1/5 — Paid for no ads, still has ads *2019-07-15* Restoring purchase works until the next time you play, and you have to wait through an ad to get the option ### 1/5 — Fucking ads *2016-09-28* 広告が邪魔！！ ### 1/5 — ios 6/7 *2016-07-29* Add support for previous ios versions! ### 1/5 — Frechheit *2016-06-23* Kurz vorneweg, die App ist gut, läuft stabil und das Spiel macht auch Spaß, sollte es auch hat ja schließlich was gekostet. Und das ist die Frechheit! In einem Spiel wo die Leute Geld dafür zahlen auch noch Werbung einzubauen die man weg KAUFEN kann ist erbärmlich. Wie Geldgeil seid ihr bitte? ### 1/5 — Spoiled by ads *2016-01-11* I'm pretty sure I paid for this app, so why am I now seeing ads? I get asked if I want to watch a video (ad) to earn a second chance. I choose "No" and, instead of a video, I get a full screen ad for some app I don't want or need! Ads just spoil the experience and, when they are added after I paid for the app, just make the developer look greedy. ### 1/5 — PUBBLICITA' INVASIVA... *2015-11-18, version 2.0* Carino....ma la pubblicità' si presenta a tonnellate, dopo 2 minuti scarsi già' ti interrompe e ti rompe le pa...e Senza sarebbe un bel gioco ### 1/5 — This is mostly an ad *2015-11-17, version 2.0* I'm ok with an ad between games, but when they interrupt a game for a lengthy ad, DELETE. ### 1/5 — Aide *2015-11-16* Que faut il faire à ce jeu? Réponse en francais ### 1/5 — Abklatsch *2015-08-30* Billiger Abklatsch von Race the Sun!!! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — cool *2025-04-29* a really good game. would love to see an update or a sequel ### 5/5 — How have I not found this sooner! *2023-06-27* Idk what’s wrong with people nowadays but this game is not so many adds there is more than gameplay, in Fact I think there are none! None! (I wonder if I payed for this game by accident) also the controls are easy and precise. It’s gun ### 5/5 — 運動にはちょうど良い *2023-03-26* 某ゲームのゲームボードを使うと良い運動になる ### 5/5 — Good *2022-06-30* This is a very nice game in my opinion But one thing I think would be good is extra ships you can get ### 5/5 — Just-Yes *2021-10-01* If I’m being honest, just download it and try it yourself, it’s so good i feel like Im not giving it enough credit when I try to explain. It’s simple and you just can’t stop playing it. If I had to put it into words, I’d say this game is absolutely amazing, and honestly a tad bit addictive. I have a lot of no ad, good games like this, but I just can’t stop playing this one. Sure I’ll play daddy long legs for a couple of minutes, but this one is just so fun and simple, but so detailed and amazing at the same time. This is an easy but escalating game where each level is fun and doesn’t get boring even after awhile, and it pushes you to beat your high score. I love the controls, and I really don’t understand when people say the controls are to sensitive. You can adjust them to just use your finger or tilt your device unlike many other games. Just get the game already, it’s amazing. ### 5/5 — cool *2021-04-17, version 2.1* a good game ### 5/5 — Genial *2021-04-01* Super Spiel ### 5/5 — Amazing *2018-08-03* Really sick game to kill time while listening to music! Would be mad if you could invert colors so you could play in dark without hurting your eyes ### 5/5 — La vache *2018-06-13* La vache ces génial ### 5/5 — Update needed! *2018-04-22* Please update for the larger iPhone X screen! Great game but needs updating for the new screen sizes! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
