Ape Escape is an addictive endless runner where you try to escape from an angry ape who's destroying the city. If you're tired of the same old games, this game is a breath of fresh air, because you have to run in the opposite direction and dodge obstacles with hardly any time to react.
Like other endless runners, in Ape Escape, you can move from one side to the other by sliding your finger left and right. However, in this game, you can't jump or crouch. That's because you're racing backwards, so you don't have time to react, and the only way to survive in one piece is by moving from one side to the other. Avoid crashing into cars and watch out for all the other obstacles in your way.
Watch out for the destruction caused by the ape, because pieces of buildings and vehicles can fall and block your path. Another thing to keep in mind is that the ape will speed up to get closer to you and hit you with his arms. So stay on your toes, because the final blow could come from any direction.
Finally, Ape Escape is set to music, so each move you make has to keep the beat. Enjoy popular songs as you play in this crazy adventure, trying to escape from a giant ape and get the best score you can.
