Game Insight Reveals First Video of 'Running Shadow'; Assassins Creed Runner Anyone?

The constant running games like Temple Run, Angry Granny Run, Rayman Jungle Run and plenty more seem to be taking over. They are simple to play, hard to master and highly addictive. At least, when done right. Fans of the genre will be eager to check out a new running game that is on the horizon from Game Insight called Running Shadow.

The game offers up 20 interesting characters, gorgeous gothic-style locations and supposedly a great story line. You play in a realm called Hadrion and is a nation full of dark dungeons, deadly traps and enemies abound. It looks like it could be a huge hit for the game developing company. Take a watch of the video below to see just how cool it looks.

I can’t help but feel like it is a combination of Assassin’s Creed and Prince of Persia judging by the video. That isn’t a bad thing really, I love both games. But the intro sure seems AC and those wall running stunts and the slow motion is sure a page from PoP. Game Insight doesn’t offer up a specific release date, just sometime in early 2014. I can image that there will be some in-app purchasing for power-ups and various other things to make your quest a bit easier and more exciting.
