Running games are a popular genre of video games that focus on continuous movement, reflex-based gameplay, and avoiding obstacles. They can be categorized into endless runners, level-based platformers, and 3D action runners. Here are some key types and examples:

1. Endless Runners 🏃‍♂️

In these games, the player runs indefinitely until they hit an obstacle or fail. The goal is to survive as long as possible and achieve a high score.

• Temple Run – One of the most famous endless runners, where you escape from demonic monkeys in an ancient temple.
• Subway Surfers – A colorful, fast-paced game where you run through subway tracks dodging trains.
• Vector – A parkour-inspired endless runner with fluid animations.

2. Level-Based Running Games 🎮

These games feature structured levels with goals instead of endless gameplay.

• Super Mario Run – A mobile platformer where Mario runs automatically, and you tap to jump.
• Rayman Jungle Run – A beautifully animated auto-runner with tight platforming mechanics.
• Sonic Dash – A mix of endless running and level-based challenges with Sonic’s signature speed.

3. First-Person / 3D Running Games 🚀

Some running games use a 3D first-person or third-person perspective, adding immersion.

• Tunnel Rush – A reflex-based game where you speed through a neon tunnel, dodging obstacles.
• Mirror’s Edge – While not an endless runner, this game features fast-paced parkour and running mechanics.
• Minion Rush – Based on the Despicable Me movies, this game adds fun challenges and character customization.
