### 3/5 — Needs an update

*2022-12-26, version 1.7*

Great game but it’s been the same for years

### 4/5 — Ok

*2019-05-28*

I remember playing this game.

### 4/5 — Run and shoot and don’t stop

*2019-04-04, version 1.7*

It’s one of the most entertaining zombie games I’ve ever played

### 4/5 — Running Dead - Awesome Zombi game!

*2017-07-20, version 1.7*

Running Dead installed fine. Have never had a problem with it on my iPad 2 which is currently running iOS 9.3.  I have had it installed since early 2013, with all updates.  The game is fun, the zombies chase after your human.  Features are easy to access and use.  Lots of fun action running away and slaughtering zombies.

### 4/5 — Glad I found out about it

*2017-02-13*

It is a really good game with creepy music at the start

### 3/5 — Ehh

*2017-02-01, version 1.7*

It's an okay game with a lot of grinding. Or pay to win

### 3/5 — Running dead

*2016-12-04*

Fun and addictive but could use upgrades. New maps, weapons, runners, surprise goes etc. Could be a top 10 game with some upgrades.

### 5/5 — BRAVO BRAVO!!

*2016-03-21*

Awesome game. I am hooked please do not change a thing just keep adding to the game. I read many comments about the game being to fast!!!! SERIOUSLY PEOPLE ANY SLOWER and the game would not be challenging. Congrats to the creators.

### 5/5 — Love but

*2015-05-10, version 1.51*

I love this game I really like temple run that's how I found out about this. I wish the two designers would get together to make a game this one a title tilt and your person is all the way across the screen with temple they moved a little bit which I have found I like a lot better. And the tapping you barely move. Despite this short falls I love everything else I play it when I have down time on breaks or while waiting on someone. If those fixes could be made I would love this even more!

### 5/5 — Great Zombie Game

*2015-03-27, version 1.51*

Best Zombie Running game iv played on mobile, there's only on problem it takes a little bit long with the startup when its showing the company's name, most games take about 3-6 sec but this one takes 6-10 seconds. Bad if your 
Impatient, but i don't mind the longer wait. Over all, this is a MUST DOWNLOAD GAME!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟👈👍

### 3/5 — Good but I want to drive cars

*2015-03-22*

This is a really good game and all my friends have it but it could be better if you could get into cars and drive them. In this bit, you could also run the zombies over as well as shoot them. Of this game had that, it would be 5 stars for sure

### 5/5 — Cool

*2015-02-05*

I pretty much love games as long as they have guns. Also I love zombie games. Not horror games I hate horror games. Otherwise the game crashes a lot and just from the screenshots it looked amazing. So just update the game plz so it doesn't crash all the time

### 3/5 — Needs a little tune up

*2014-09-21*

I love the game, but it always crashes on the startup , but when I play its fine and runs smoothly. Please fix this!

### 4/5 — Great Game but Where's the Ammo?

*2014-09-15, version 1.51*

The graphics are pretty good, think first Temple Run but just a bit better. Very addicting and fun. Clever idea to include the different control options. However I keep running out of ammo. It seems that no matter what weapon I use I always run out of ammo, I'm not overshooting either. There are just a lot of zombies and I think the most ammo boxes I've collected in a game was three. I stocked up on ammo with my coins. I had 80 arrows for my crossbow and I was completely out at my 3rd game. Ammo is something you can't run out of because with the way this game is designed, you're zombie food without it. I'm just asking for ammo showing up more frequently, course coins are another request too. But I would still recommend buying this, it's a fun game!

### 1/5 — Worst

*2017-03-24, version 1.7*

I've gotten sicker than   Clinton and Donald Trumps reputation.

### 1/5 — This is a horrible game

*2017-02-12, version 1.7*

I found this game on the same day i decided to delete it because it is a horrible game and it is so tough to beat it that I just decided quit

### 1/5 — WORST GAME EVER!! 😡👎

*2016-11-28, version 1.7*

I downloaded this game about a week ago and deleted it the very same day. Why? , you ask. Because it's tough as nails and unable to be beaten. Basically you have to find tough to find objects to kill the zombies with and it's too hard. Also it glitches like a lot. So don't waste your time or money with this app an dits features at all. My final warning to all of you. Get a good zombie killing game. I recommend playing Dead Trigger 2.

### 1/5 — Not Working!

*2016-07-24*

This game needs to be fix because even I keep on touching right or left its not working so this game needs to be fix more

### 1/5 — Boring not fun what's the point??

*2015-04-06*

I don't like this game.. I am game critic I critic games that are not worthy on the App Store this is a game I hate from experience!! GAME SUCKS!! Laggy as well,,,,....

### 1/5 — Not fun.

*2014-12-21, version 1.51*

This game is really just not fun. It is really hard to avoid the obstacles and the handgun is like the only gun you can get. The levels are really repetitive. You run from zombies on the street in level one and then you run from zombies in a house in level two. Also the zombies are a lot faster then the person that you are using so you have to really try hard to get the specials. Which brings up another problem. It is really hard to get the pick ups both amo and specials. When there are so many other good games out there I don't no why you would play this. Sadly I feel like I will be the only person to ever read this because all the reviews I post seem to never get put up. All and all this game is not worth it.

### 1/5 — There's a bug

*2013-01-16*

Playing in the tutorial then after I have the option to pick 'tilting' or 'touching' for the movements of my character, i pick touching and then I cant move my character at all!!! & she just keeps running so no point having the game if it stuffs up like that, very upset

### 1/5 — Drain all memory!!! Phone died at the end

*2013-01-15*

Drain all memory!!! Phone died at the end

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2013-01-14*

### 5/5 — Can you pause the game

*2022-04-09, version 1.7*

Great game enjoy it immensely.  Question does this game have a pause option?

### 5/5 — SO ADDICTIVE

*2018-05-08, version 1.7*

This game takes the F out of fun and puts it in FANTASTIC! I love how challenging and fun it is at the same time. So if you like zombie games then you need to play this. Especially  if your up for a challenge 👍

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2018-04-28*

I normally don’t like this type of game but when I downloaded it I was playing for about 4 hours. This game is well made and I would definitely recommend it

### 5/5 — Running Dead

*2017-11-24, version 1.7*

Fantastically designed and actually fun to play. Earning money and using it to purchase new weapons and upgrade them, keeps the entertainment level high enough to keep you playing. There are different control schemes to choose from which is nice. The menus are well designed, intuitive and easy to use. The gun upgrades do make a difference, but not much unless you max them out. The object of the game isn't to reach an end, (that's why they're called "endless runners) but more to see how far you can get without being eaten. Some upgrades are permanent like self healing over time. 
It's a truly fun game worth trying. 
Regards, J
P.S. it's kind of stupid to go and rate a game with one star, only to promote another, or to put it down with statements that show that you obviously haven't played it. Go twitter with the rest of your looser friends and bicker there.
