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

Subway Surfer Review:

Subway surfer is a type of game which is addictive to the user, making the user unable to pull away for too long. It’s become one of the most popular games within the App store just like its competition Temple Run and also Temple Run 2. It is a type of game which demonstrates the mobile gaming within the content it’s a version of an endless runner which has many different twists this makes the gaming experience more enjoyable to the user. Using the latest mobile phones you are able to move the mobile device and the game picks up the movement.

 
The game itself has the user running along a set of subway tracks they have to run as long as they can and keep away from the screen picking up the coins and other items. Throughout the game it is very gripping because you have to make sure you are attentive when playing the game. There are many different obstacles which the user comes across this keeps the user alert.

When playing the game Subway Surfer you are able to swipe your finger to make from the left and right on the screen. The character is also allowed to switch between one of the three different subway tracks. During the game you would always more forward and transferring from left to right allow the user to be in control. The challenge of the game is to collect as many coins as possible. The game offers unlock able achievements so it keeps the user interested given the user also an advantage during game play.

The graphics in the game Subway Surfers are 3D which is amazing for the user because they are able to see the texture of the graphics. The graphics are sharp and visual allowing the user to feel as if they are within that environment. The graphics which are featured add to the gaming experience. The characters itself have been creating to fit all different type of ethic. The game itself subway surfer is a real good game which would give any other type of runner game a run for its money.


In the game Subway Surfer the music isn’t that distracting because there isn’t that much music. So no matter what if you have music or you don’t have the background music then it wouldn’t distract you. On subway surfer there isn’t a function which allows multi player.

The rewards you can receive when completing each starting position until you hit obstacles then you can receive boosts such as head starts and hover boards. During the games you can receive items such as jumping sneaker and also coins. You are also able to buy coins and spend them on things in their online store. Sometimes developer of this type of games would make it hard for the users to get coins so they would use their own real life money to buy coins. However I think that the aim of the game is to collect as many coins so buying coins isn’t any point in wasting your own real money.


In conclusion the game is similar to temple run the aim of the game is the same as well however there is a few differences. One of the features with the game subway surfer you are able to share your score with your friends on Face book this allows users to be able to communicate while enjoying the game. Another feature about this game is that the more you process in the game the faster the speed goes allowing the user to feel the pace of the game. Also receiving more coins you can purchases items like more characters, this allows the user to build on their character and profile.


Overall Subway Surfer is a good game which allows you as a player to be able to enjoy the games.
