Certain microtransactions in the game are annoying, but not enough to ruin the experience. Crash Bandicoot: On the Run! is an endless runner well worth the download.

- 7.0The nostalgic trappings of the experience are a ploy, and one that works pretty darn well. The game bears the hallmarks of nostalgia, of a glimpse into a rose-tinted past, but unabashedly uses them to drag the player into a more mundane and general present.
- If you like polished, fun, endless runner style games or even just have a passing nostalgia for the original Crash games then Crash Bandicoot: On the Run will fit like a glove.
- 7.0Crash Bandicoot: On the Run! is a level-based runner set in the Crash Bandicoot universe that, to my big surprise, is being developed and published by Candy Crush-dev King.
- 5.0It might be dedicated to its source material, but Crash: On the Run! feels too bogged down with microtransactions and repetitive gameplay to be truly worth your while. Without paying up, it felt like I was at a severe disadvantage, and the grind to gather items and craft them into weapons just felt a little too tedious.
- Overall, I’m cautiously optimistic about On the Run. It gets the basics right, and provides enough to keep you coming back daily, but it’s definitely missing a few ingredients. Add these in and it’s the mobile Crash game we’ve always wanted.
Gamer reviews
There is only so much you can get out of it for a phone game. Although it is a good game to pass the time it's hard to get get immersed into because in the the end all it comes down to is just swiping the screen. There just isn't enough there to make it extraordinary and as engaging at the console titles.

Good but there’s to many ads.
Unlike other runner games, this has other features included besides one endless run. Wumpa fruit has been made into a resource unlike in the main games where you get a 100 you get an extra life. You have to gather other resources in order to take down bosses and build items or buildings that will help you as you advance in the game. While there are still microtransactions and you don't really need them unless you're desperate to speed up everything you do in-game.
