Build and Run
Think fast and act quickly to help the stickman constructor Build and Run through the treacherous stages in this deceivingly simple and quite tricky 2D platform-running game. You must choose between the three blocks available and place them correctly to avoid the obstacles ahead. Occasionally, you’ll have to destroy boxes and swiftly eliminate enemies with your trusty knife.
The graphics are minimalistic, but the overall visual style is very appealing. The funky disco music is absolutely amazing, and the arcade-style sound effects flawlessly complement the fabulous audio experience. Coins collected across dozens of levels or while playing the Endless Mode enable you to unlock some wacky skins just for kicks.
How to play Build and Run
The stage layout quickly alters, so it’s essential to adapt rapidly and react to the upcoming obstacles to avoid getting killed. If you follow the trail of coins scattered along the way to the exit door, completing the levels shouldn’t be an issue. The tricky part is actually executing the mechanics without mixing up the builds.
Â
Always try to have the appropriate block ready and waiting before you’re able to put it in place. As for using the knife, you need to be patient because, to destroy an obstacle/enemy ahead, you must be precisely a single square away from it.
