Overview
Cow Runner is a survival racing game. Steer a cow around a course avoiding the electric fences and other obstacles. The catch is that the cow can only turn left and every time he completes a circuit he gets faster. The more you play the more you unlock in the ability shop to improve your chances.
Cow Runner is a tricky game to master, but rewarding for those who take the time to practice and get better at steering the cow. It uses one button for the majority of its gameplay, but as you gain new abilities other buttons come into play such as pressing a button for time slowing coffee beans and a jet pack that allows you to turn (a little bit) right. You learn through practice whether to press the button fast or slow to get the cow to do what you need. Be prepared to explode on the electric fence quite a few times before you get the hang of it.
This is a simple but charming game with cute characters and easy to understand gameplay that requires very little in the way of instruction. Just press the Cross button and turn the cow. Do not be fooled by how simple it looks, it's one of those games that requires patience, practice and dexterity.
