The path is long, many enemies stand in your path. But all obstacles only serve to make you stronger! Charge straight into your enemies, punch them in their dumb faces and watch your muscles swell with new power. Keep going, keep punching, keep winning, keep growing, until you reach the Boss, the King, at the end of the level… he's the strongest of them all, to be able to beat him you'll need to have beaten all who came before him. You'll only get one shot, can you knock the crown from his head? Are boxing gloves too basic? Do you want to throw those fists with some style? Customize your fighter! Go brutal and decorate your mighty fists with the skulls of your enemies. Get funny and wear beachballs as boxing gloves. Customize your character, stride into battle wearing a viking helmet or a classic cowboys hat, or anything you want! Use your unique look to strike fear into the enemy.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Level Up Runner holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Level Up Runner has 33K ratings behind it against 671, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of Slash Royal's written reviews are positive against 42% of Level Up Runner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Slash Royal ships an update monthly, Level Up Runner every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on September 24, 2026.
