Neon Runners: Craft & Dash, a new side-scrolling platformer, is now available on Android. This globally launched game features adorable anime girls navigating challenging obstacle courses. A key feature is the ability to create and share custom courses with other players.
Anykraft, the developer, clearly draws inspiration from Nintendo's successful Mario Maker formula. The map-sharing element, a popular feature even before Mario Maker, is central to Neon Runners' design. Players control cute anime girls, skillfully maneuvering through pre-designed and user-created levels, dodging perilous obstacles.
However, a notable aspect, potentially off-putting to some, is the game's integration of cryptocurrency. Players can earn sweepstakes tickets redeemable for rewards, including Bitcoin—a feature the developers prominently highlight.
The "Craft" element of the title likely refers to the course creation feature, possibly also serving an SEO purpose. The gameplay appears fast-paced and visually engaging, boasting flashy graphics and demanding obstacle courses.
The inclusion of cryptocurrency rewards and a friend referral system might deter some players. Despite this, those unfazed by these elements can enjoy the game's core mechanics.
