Crash Bandicoot: On the Run! – A Mobile Adventure with a Classic Twist

Crash Bandicoot: On the Run! brought the iconic orange marsupial back into the spotlight—this time on mobile devices. Developed by King, the studio behind Candy Crush Saga, this action-packed endless runner launched globally in March 2021 for Android and iOS, giving fans a new way to experience Crash's chaotic world.

It wasn't just running—On the Run! featured:

Crafting weapons like bombs and ray guns to defeat bosses
Base building, where players upgraded Coco’s lab

🕹️ Gameplay Experience

Unlike typical endless runners, Crash Bandicoot: On the Run! added a mission-based structure and multiple paths during levels, offering a more dynamic experience. Collecting ingredients for weapons added a resource-management layer that encouraged returning daily.

The controls were intuitive: swipe to move, tap to spin. The game was easy for newcomers and nostalgic for long-time fans of the Crash franchise.

Unfortunately, despite a strong launch and millions of downloads, Crash Bandicoot: On the Run! was officially shut down on February 16, 2023. The game’s servers were taken offline, and it is no longer available on app stores.

🧡 Legacy

Crash Bandicoot: On the Run! was a unique experiment in adapting a console platformer into a mobile runner. While it didn’t last long, it left a mark as one of the more ambitious mobile adaptations of a beloved franchise.
