The best parkour-inspired action game is now available! Vector lets you break free and run! Don't get caught! Vector is an exciting, arcade-style game featuring you as the exceptional free runner who won’t be held down by the system. The game opens with a view into a totalitarian world where freedom and individually is nothing more than a distant dream. But the heart of a freerunner is strong, and you soon break free. Run, vault, slide and climb using extraordinary techniques based on the urban ninja sport of Parkour all while being chased by “Big Brother” who’s sole purpose is to capture you and bring you back. Inspired by the practice and principles of Parkour, Vector’s intuitive controls please players of all levels, and sophisticated level designs challenge the most demanding players with fast-paced timing puzzles as the traceur “flows” over the dystopian rooftops. Game Features: - Arcade gameplay from the makers of the Shadow Fight games - Astoundingly lifelike Parkour-inspired moves made possible by Cascadeur animation tools - 40+ challenging levels - Quick to learn, challenging to master The Press Loves Vector: “The way Vector mimics the movements of real-life parkour practitioners is quite impressive... I can’t wait to be entrapped in Vector’s promising mix of direction and magnitude.” (appadvice.com) “Vector is thrilling, rich in variety and it reminds us of Stick Run, but offers much more elaborate animations.” (fbgamer.de) "The only cool way to run from all your problems."

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Vector Classic at 4.9 against Urban Ninja's 4.3. Vector Classic also leads on ratings volume (2.8K vs 66) and update cadence (every 4 months vs every 12 months). Urban Ninja's advantage is review sentiment (91% vs 55%) and ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Urban Ninja costs $0.99 and Vector Classic $0.99 up front. Urban Ninja sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Vector Classic sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Vector Classic holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Vector Classic has 2.8K ratings behind it against 66, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 91% of Urban Ninja's written reviews are positive against 55% of Vector Classic's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Urban Ninja ships an update every 12 months, Vector Classic every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on October 18, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
