8.0
In the end, Record Run is a great showing by Harmonix on the mobile front. Playing one's own music is a blast and the level design works, even though none of it is perfect. As a free game, Record Run has a lot to offer and shouldn't be missed.

Critic reviews
- 5.0It’s like listening to a favorite song sung by a different artist in the wrong key; it’s familiar and almost enjoyable, but it never gets stuck in your head like the real thing.
- 7.0Record Run provides the necessary upbeat entertainment to keep you mildly amused on your phone for a small amount of time. Unfortunately there isn’t enough replay value to keep this app on your iPhone or iPad for an elongated amount of time.
- 4.0You never feel in time with the music, the scattershot levels will infuriate those looking for their next auto-runner, and the IAPs are horrendous.
- 2.0We'd go as far as saying it's a disgrace. A stain on the studio that gave us Dance Central, Guitar Hero, Rock Band and Amplitude; an off-beat music game that lacks rhythm and fails to embrace music and those playing it. When that becomes clear (and it does swiftly) it doesn't matter that there are leaderboards, or even that the game is free. Record Run is broken beyond repair. Avoid at all costs.
