Temple Run

My school used to be crazy about this game. Everywhere you saw an iDevice, people would be playing Temple Run. Including some teachers.

Now the new shit is Instagram. FML

I'm pretty sure my score was above 25 mil, probably in 30 mil.

Why is this a thread?

Seriously, this is barely a game, along with most mobile apps. And that's coming from someone who buys way too many apps for his iPhone.

your input, while a year late, is duly noted



so many people seem to hate the mineshaft area, but I really enjoy it. And I don't think it's such a bad thing that the second one isn't super different from the first, it is only an iPhone game after all. Angry Birds 2 is killing it right now, and the only difference there is they threw Star Wars shit on everything
 
^yeah i don't get the mineshaft hate

ALSO for anyone who hasn't yet figured it out: (glitch exploitation alert) if you're using Coin Magnet as your coin-activated power up, it normally won't let you collect coins toward the next power up while it's active. But if you trip yourself while it's active, it will. Trip yourself about a second after you activate the Coin Magnet and voila, virtually infinite coin magnet!

That is not the point. The point is, commenting and just saying temple run is bad, with no reason as to why you think that or anything, isn't doing anything for this thread, and in fact, it's making this thread more displeasing than it should be. I understand not everybody likes temple run, but just commenting to say "temple run is bad." is just.... "not very smart," as some people would put it.

Am i the only one who despises the idea of the save mes in the new one?

As is with most games, I hoard my gems like a pack rat, and don't use them unless I'm breaking / about to break a high score. Even still, I don't use them much.

However, the fact that it takes more and more gems to save yourself does keep the idea of save me 'in check', though one could say it is broken because you can be lucky and just keep picking up gems and saving yourself

But remember, last game had a similar mechanic, but it was bought and you only needed one per death.

God, I'm talking like this is pkmn
 
At first I personally couldn't figure out the mineshaft and basically died every time I encountered it. Once you figure it out it is one of the easiest parts. Same goes for running and seeing just a sculpture floating. Took me a while too realize that I had to turn not jump.

Don't understand all the hating for temple run. We also have an app thread that I would love if someone bumped it with a good contribution.

exact same for me, I don't use the gems unless I'm 500 coins or 100,000 from a new achievement or something
 
all the power-ups got nerfed though. invisibility --> shield, coin magnet no longer has a 3x boost, the boost is a lot less, and the coin bonus sucks. ugh... used to be so easy to hit 10M. now I can barely get past 3M w/o spamming save mes. also kinda glitchy. but nice graphics! :)
 
Yeah, the powerup nerfing was the first thing I noticed too. Supremely missing that 3x coin magnet.
 
I like the point boost and the coin bonus tbh. For those that just looked at the point boost and though "only 500 points, lol fuck no" like I did originally, it's actually 500*your multiplier, so if you multiplier is in the 50's, that's not terrible (not GREAT, but meh). The coin boost is nice you when you need to get like a bajillion coins, but not that much better than the magnet for coin farming I suppose. But yea, the nerfs to the other power-ups are sad.

I really just wish all the glitches would get fixed. Two of my objectives are stuck as things I've already done (1,000,000 lifetime meters and 500,000 coins) and I just want to get to level 10 so I can get that gem power-up thing....

EDIT: Obviously the most important discussion regarding this game is what character you use though. I use Barry Bones :O
 
For those of you who, like me, were very frustrated with this game's problems:

UPDATE TODAY

Yeah, they put out an update, and it purportedly fixed literally every single issue anyone has mentioned in this thread. Since installing it, I have not lost a game due to lagging or glitching, I no longer have the same achievement goal repeated, and my lifetime stats are fixed.

Only downside: you can no longer intentionally trip and refill your power-up bar while using the magnet. Nerfed again!
 
DM, I installed the glitch but unfortunately my lifetime coin amount is still very messed up. I completed the 100,000 lifetime coins thing (Twice, actually, as it glitched like that as well). I now have the get 500,000 and 1,000,000 coin achievements up and my lifetime amount is at 8,100 coins... Awesome! Other than that i've encountered no other glitches which is nice. But now that I have all lifetime achievements left it's a little boring...
 
Have you hit level 10 yet? At this point, that seems like an impossibility. And yeah, my lifetime coin amount is still screwed up too. Sigh.
 
I can never get past the objectives that require u to run x meters without collecting any coins like there seriouslY HAS to be some big secret behind it ughhh

pro tip: when the coins are in the middle for example, next set of coins will very likely not be in the middle. so tilt prematurely to increase your chances of not getting coins. this worked for me.

obviously i use scarlett fox. love it when she moans
 
I really like this game and Subway Surf, another freeware app like Temple Run, both are excellent for when I have to wait out five minutes for something.

I suck ass at both of them, though.
 
Yea DM I'm at Level 8.... Idk how people got to level 10. I have the 1 mil meter one and the 500k and 1 mil coin ones... What the hell can come after those.
