Sonic Runners shuts down on July 27th

[Justinde75]

Sega announced that they are going to shut down thier mobile Game "Sonic Runners" in late July. They didn't give a real explanation, but they thanked all the players for trying it out. Sonic Runners was a commercial failure for Sega and they had higher expectations for the Game and they hoped they could deliver a better experience with the Game. Because of the end of the Game, Sega announced in-game sales this week.

Really? I thought it was really fun Plus it had a really good soundtrack. I didn't play it so much because it needed an active Internet connection, and I hate games that do that

The word "cringe" has become so cringey recently. It's an overused word that has lost its meaning.

Why ?

Probably because it made class comparatively fun.

But that doesn't explain the "allowed"

Well Sega just released it, and didn't advertise it at all

It was just a copy of other games. I enjoyed it though, I don't know what's "cringe" about it.

It's one of the first things you see when you start the game

I agree, the game was preety mediocre, just like the other mobile sonic games.
