Temple Run: Brave

Imangi and Disney partnership outcome is a Temple Run version based on the movie Brave.

Merida, the hero starring Diney's movie "Brave" dared to take the idol of Temple Run, the addictive 3D canabalt-like game. Thus, instead of the well-known explorer of the basic Temple Run, you embody Merida who's chased by evil werewolves, nipping at her heels.

Like a pure canabalt-like game, this is a endless running game. However, the environment changes when you collect enough coins to fill up the attitude bar. Although the scenery changes, gameplay is still the same: you have to avoid obstacles or gaps by jumping (swiping up) or sliding (swiping down) and tilt to collect coins. Coins collected are accumulated in your bankroll and you can use them to purchase power-ups and items that will help you out to get even further. In this version you can even buy new clothes for Merida. You can get more coins by paying with real money (in-app purchase).

This Brave-themed version of Temple Run adds a new feature: in order to score higher, you will have to hit targets with your bow. It should be said that this becomes quite a tough task to perform while trying to avoid obstacles.

Like in the basic version of Temple Run, there's a stats section from where you can see your bankroll, multiplier, highest score, longest run, coins-streak, total games and distance. Moreover, there's a "Objectives" section, where you can find a list of achievements to unlock.

3D Graphics seems to be enhanced in this version. There are no issues with screentouch response. However, accuracy will depend on your screen size.

The game is still awesome. However, we decided to rate it 4/5 because it's doesn't add up relevant enhancements when compared with the basic version. What's more, this version is paid and we don't feel that only its Brave-theme justifies that change.
