Pocket Gamer: Early '90s action moves were often described by their marketing people as "Die Hard on a...", with whatever vehicle, building, structure, natural that had been occupied by the villains of the piece completing the sentence.
Following on in that vein, Mutant Roadkill from Glu is best described as Temple Run in a car. And some zombies. And a slightly more invasive freemium system. In the future.
Mutant Roadkill, by Glu Mobile, as many will say is just another rip-off of Temple Run. But seriously, how long ago was Sonic the HedgeHog around doing the same damn thing, but without being chased? Temple Run is nothing new. Just something new to our addictive app world that we all crap ponies over when a new, fun app comes out. Sure, Mutant Roadkill is the common ”How far can you get?” type game, but this game has a nice twist to it. Instead of running on foot at impossible speeds, you are driving a vehicle and trying to get as far through the mutant infested wastelands as you can.
Android Entity writes: "Following Temple Run’s success on the mobile market, we shouldn’t be surprised to see so many similar products released recently and one of them is Mutant Roadkill and endless runner with a twist. We could call it “Temple Run on Steroids” as this game takes place in a post-apocalyptic setting where collecting coins is replaced by killing zombies or mutants or… mutant zombies."
STP: Mutant Roadkill zooms down the highway at a breakneck pace, but it doesn’t stop to smell the roses.
