Canabalt is about as simple as it gets. You are running. From what? To where? I don’t know, and all that matters is getting away from whatever IT is as fast as your little legs can carry you.
You play as a little pixelated man running on the rooftops of buildings in a dystopian, black and white world, dodging barrels, bombs, crumbling buildings and jumping onto anything that can take you further away from whatever it is you are running from.
With the game’s legendary music by Danny Baranowsky pounding in your earbuds, you attempt to make it as far as you can before falling, getting vaporized or being crushed.
This game is available on the appstore for $2.99 on your mobile device, or for free online.
