Subway Surfer- Game review

Introduction:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Subway surfer is an endless running game which is available for user to play on IOS, kindle and Android devices. This game is quite similar to an existing one temple run so as a temple run player it was quite easy to pick up on what i needed to do.

Story:

The story line of subway surfer is quite simple misbehaved children characters Jake and Tricky are being chased by a train inspector and his dog as they were caught graffiti on the trains.  So the aim of the game is to out run the inspector and his dog while facing number of obstacles. For example the moving trains. The way the story has been set out enables a user to quickly pick up on what exactly they are meant to do. This game is set out for a user to fail so the goal is to run as much distance as possible while collecting as much coins as possible.

Game play:

With the game play of subway surfer the game starts off with a slow peace enabling a user to figure out exactly what the aim of the game is and how they need to do to get past each obstacles. The game enables user to pick between different characters however it only provides the user with two characters free; Jake and Tricky. The rest of the character would have to be bought with the money collected from playing the game. The game is structured in a way that ensure that the user fails, I really like the way the game has been set out because i motivates the user to keep trying after every time they fail.

 

Graphics:

The game uses high quality graphics throughout the game. Compare to some other games I have played when the environment or scenery changes so for example with quake the graphics underwater is extremely poor however with subway surfer has high quality throughout the game for example when  the player is under bridge the image is still very clear.

Sounds:

I really like the sounding that has been used in subways surfer. I think that they are creative, adventurous and fit for purpose. It uses an adventurous background theme song which i thought went really well with the game play. One of the sounds used within the game that i really liked was the sound used when the user is collecting coin it remembered me of some child games I used to play. However, I do feel that they could have used more sound for example sounds of an oncoming train would have made things much more realistic. 

Overall

To conclude i think that the game was really good as a whole because once i started playing it i couldn’t stop. i like the sounding , graphics and the structure of the game. Otherthan the few suggestions i made on the sound i could not think of anything else to add to make the game better
