Chameleon Run iPhone Game App Review
Chameleon Run for iPhone is a unique, fast and challenging autorunner with a colorful twist. Your goal is to switch your color to match the ground as you run and jump from platform to platform. It might sound easy. But in reality, it is not. You can download Chameleon Run for $1.99 from iTunes App Store.
Features
In Chameleon Run for iPhone, you got to switch between pink and yellow so that your character matches up with the platform. You got to continue doing it as you hop between alternating colored platforms. As you progress, how quickly and precisely you change colors decide your success. The game appears like an endless runner in the first glance. But in reality, it is a level based platformer having thoughtfully designed levels to engage the player. It is a challenge to jump in the air and change colors before you touch down with precise timing. But the game play is not impossible. Once you get into the flow of jumping and changing colors while landing, things starts to fall in place. The controls are intuitive. There are two buttons – tap the one on the right side to jump and click on the left one to change colors. The length of the jump is determined by how long you hold on to your iPhone screen.
Chameleon Run for iPhone features beautiful 3D design with stark contrasting colors and a reflective surface below the platforms. The color trail behind the character is fun to watch. The game has a total of 16 levels, of which four are tutorial levels. If you decide to play the game continuously, the levels will be exhausted pretty sooner than later. Non-linear levels with 3 special objectives in each one is certainly nice to have. But an unlockable endless mode would have come handy. The game is slick and responsive as well. Chameleon Run app requires iOS 8.0 or later.
Conclusion
Chameleon Run for iPhone is a finely bundled action packed platformer that is challenging as well as fun to play. It is about timing the jump and changing the colors by the time your character lands. The 3D graphics is impressive with stark contrasting colors and a reflective surface below the platforms. The controls are intuitive. On the flip side, you may blow through the available levels in no time, if you play continuously. An unlockable endless mode would have been a great addition. Overall, a platformer that is high on speed, challenges and entertainment. Check it out if you love this genre of games.
