For one reason or another, a lot of developers lately have tried to turn classic games into endless runners. I noticed it first with Circus Atari (okay, so that one’s more of an endless ascension game) and Pitfall!, but Zaxxon Escape is yet another fine example. It adheres to the (admittedly threadbare) canon of the original, but drops just about everything else. Arcade nuts, this is not the nostalgia boost you’ve been looking for.
AppSpy: Zaxxon Escape may be a logical continuation of the classic Arcade title, but aside from its shiny spaceship based theme it brings little to the table you can't already get in free Temple Run style games.
DG: Sega’s latest game to hit Android, Zaxxon Escape, is a remake of the classic arcade game from the 80’s, Zaxxon. However, due to me having never played the original Zaxxon arcade game because I wasn’t born yet then, I’ll just review this modern remake based on its own merits.
Chris Buffa (Modojo): Here's something you need to know before playing Sega's new iOS and Android game, Zaxxon Escape: You will die. A lot. This endless flyer sends you through a tricky maze, where twisting your device of choice is literally a matter of life and death; OK, and swipes and taps also come into play. Things get nuts in a hurry, but our Zaxxon Escape cheats and tips guide will keep you alive.
