Realm Runner is a free action game where you play as Astro Eskii Dawdle, a character with squid-like abilities, competing in a wild game show that spans multiple colorful universes. Each level in this platformer is a chaotic obstacle course set in mystical forests, lava caves, and other fantastical realms.

Creative, out-of-this-world challenges

Realm Runner is all about movement—jumping, wall running, sliding, and balancing your way through tricky obstacles. Every level challenges different skills, and the layout changes with each playthrough. You can also find alternate routes and multiple ways to reach the goal. 

Items can be bought to boost or unlock abilities, but you can only bring two per level, so strategy matters. There’s also a cool challenge system tied to your competitor contract. However, the controls can feel floaty and imprecise, which makes tight movement tricky. Some bugs also affect the experience.

Big potential

Realm Runner is a fun and creative take on obstacle course games, with cool environments and lots of movement variety. It has great ideas and plenty of charm, but the floaty controls and bugs can get in the way. With more polish, it could really shine.
