Run 3
Running is a freeing activity that is also highly demanding on our bodies, so we can never hope to mimic games like Run 3. Well, other reasons include that you're a little alien running through tubes across the galaxy. This Endless Runner takes a slower-paced approach to the genre by focusing more on movement and angles. In many ways, it's quite a relaxing entry with an upbeat techno soundtrack to keep you moving and grooving forward. If you ever end up making a mistake, you can usually get back on track within a few seconds so don't sweat the small stuff.
About Run 3
This is a game that is still in its beta meaning that there are likely more changes to come as time goes on. Despite this, the current form of the game is already quite entertaining and provides a decent challenge. The more you play, the more you get a feel for the form that the path takes as well as arrangements that appear before you. There are goals that you can shoot for in this game, but the overall challenge comes from trying to get far in the galaxy as much as running and jumping can take you. See if you can unlock everything!
How to Play
Run 3 is a 3D endless runner about a little alien running through a tunnel across space using the keyboard.

- D/Right Arrow - Move Right
- W/Spacebar - Jump
Being an endless runner, the goal is to simply get as far as you can. You have two modes Exploration and Infinite. The Exploration mode allows you to play through various levels while having no penalties for falling. The Infinite Mode is the competitive mode that you can play to rack up a high score while also collecting items called Power Cells while sporadically challenging you to complete sections in a certain way in exchange for rewards boxes. It'll also be more challenging, starting with different arrangements every time.
The alien will automatically run forward through the tunnel so you'll have to steer them to safe paths. No matter what shape the tunnel takes, the alien can freely run along all of its surfaces by moving into them. The main obstacles are gaps in the path with are clear to see as well as breakable tiles that fall on contact. However, Infinite Mode quickly introduces elements like pyramid blocks, ramps, speed-up, and slow-down tiles. Jumping and switching paths are the main actions you have to avoid dangerous paths, but they do have limits. If you fall in Exploration Mode, you get sent back to the beginning of the current section (level) while Infinite Mode restarts you from the very beginning.
As you make progress and collect more Power Cells, you'll be able to unlock additional characters. Aside from their visual differences, they can also come with different abilities allowing you to play the game in various ways.
Tips and Tricks
The most important thing you can do is not get distracted. Infinite Mode throws a lot of color and prompts at you, but don't let take your eyes off the alien's path. It'll also benefit you to practice jumping so that you get a feel for the height and distance based on momentum.
