PlaySide's Boulder Jack Runs onto iOS

Catch the Ark developer PlaySide has announced the launch of Boulder Jack on iOS devices. The reverse endless runner sees players running at the screen, rather than away from it, collecting coins and avoiding obstacles across multiple lanes. The game was developed by a team including former EA Visceral employees, and doesn’t rely on one-hit-and-done mechanics. Instead, players can survive multiple hits as they run into obstacles, but the massive boulder chasing Jack gets closer each time players make a mistake.

In each run of Boulder Jack, players swipe left and right to move Jack between three lanes on the screen, while swiping up causes Jack to jump, and swiping down causes him to slide under obstacles.
