Neon Runners: Craft & Dash hits global launch on Android

Neon Runners: Craft & Dash, a new side-scrolling platformer, is now available on Android. This globally launched game features adorable anime girls navigating challenging obstacle courses. A key selling point is the ability to create and share custom courses with other players.

Anykraft, the developer, clearly draws inspiration from Nintendo's successful Mario Maker formula. The map-sharing aspect, a popular feature even before Mario Maker, is a central element of Neon Runners. Players control cute anime girls, skillfully maneuvering through perilous obstacles across both pre-designed and user-generated levels.

However, a significant drawback, and a potential deterrent for many, is the game's integration of Bitcoin. Players earn in-game sweepstakes tickets redeemable for prizes, including cryptocurrency – a feature the developers prominently highlight.

The "Craft" aspect of the title likely refers to the course creation feature, possibly also serving SEO purposes. Despite this, the game appears to offer fast-paced, engaging gameplay with vibrant graphics and demanding obstacle courses.

The inclusion of cryptocurrency rewards and a friend referral program might be off-putting to some players. However, if these elements don't bother you, Neon Runners: Craft & Dash is worth considering.
