Infinity Runner Critic Reviews

The motion controls aren’t the best and I wouldn’t recommend using them, while the stuttering on the loading screens also needs addressing. If you’re looking for a small game to play though, and like first person runners, then Infinity Runner could well be for you.

Start running, keep on running and then... run some more, avoiding a number of obstacles along the way. It's a bit repetitive, but also highly addictive and challenging. Infinity Runner is thus far from a bad game, though graphical mediocrity and a disruptive amount of bugs keep it from becoming truly enjoyable.

Infinity Runner does provide a few moments of intense fun. Unfortunately, those moments are broken up too often with gameplay choices that really bring the game (and the fun) to a screeching halt.

The graphics and presentation feel like you’re playing a mobile game, yet this is a PC port. Multiplayer has been removed. Some sections don’t make it clear what you’re supposed to do. The story is mediocre. Yet, the basic premise of the game remains fun.

Infinity Runner, for better and worse, is a standard, uneventful running game made for a console instead of a mobile device. It’s repetitive, simplistic, and meandering – but that may just be the diversion you’re seeking.

Infinity Runner has some good concepts and plays okay enough that you won’t hate it, but it simply doesn’t cohere sufficiently to enamour you of it either.

Yes, it's had far more effort that's been put into its presentation than any other example of the genre I can think of, however by its very nature this is a very limited genre, and Infinity Runner just doesn't do enough to prove its merits beyond an iPhone time waster.

Had the development team at Wales really tried to make Infinity Runner stand out with more diverse level design and better freedom of control, it could’ve really been something. Instead, it drags its feet just when the game is getting up to speed, and literally trips over itself in the hopes of achieving speedy greatness.

Infinity Runner tries to adapt a mobile concept to new platforms, but it just doesn't work as it should. It's just a different take on a mobile game, but if you're ok with that, then it'll satisfy you.

Overall, Infinity Runner shows some bright spots of enjoyment, but occasional glitches and a broken Infinity mode puts a sour taste in any purchaser’s mouth. Framerate drops, and deaths that don’t really feel like they were your fault, doesn’t help much either. The story isn’t there to hold your interest, even if you can watch the cutscenes. The game can be improved with a patch, but there is a lot here to clean up.

As sure as I am that Infinity Runner is a bad game, it's certainly not a game I dislike.

Infinity Runner is a failure from every point of view. Born as a PC game and also available on PS4, it hasn't definitely found its place in the market.

An unnecessary, amateurish attempt to bring endless runners to big platforms.

There isn't a lot to like here. Banal gameplay, cheap deaths, poor feedback, dull quick-time event combat, bad acting, worse writing, and an overall amateurish presentation. The most enjoyable part of this experience was venting to a colleague about how bad it is.

I can almost understand what Wales Interactive wanted to do and it might have turned out better if the game had more time to cook. As it exists now, there are much, much better ways to spend $7.
