"This isn't just a great shooter, it's a thrilling one.... Gridrunner's a blast, and the best shooter on iOS" - Eurogamer

Voted Game of the Week on TouchArcade

Here's another slick shooter from the developer who is rapidly gaining a reputation as the king of retro on iOS.

Gridrunner was a much-loved and popular game on the Commodore Vic-20 and Commodore 64 back in 1982. Here the game is reimagined by its original author in the style of an early 1980s coin-op arcade machine. Of course this is a Minotaur Project game, so we ignore the limitations of such old hardware, borrowing just the style but presenting a slick, modern shooter that is a joy to play on iOS.

As can be relied on in a Llamasoft game the controls are excellent and the gameplay fun, satisfying and rewarding.


Get your blasting trousers on and get ready to enjoy some classic shooting fun re-energised for the modern era.

Play the new Survival Mode FREE. Unlock the traditional Pure and Casual modes, plus the Vic-20 and Commodore 64 games, via a single low cost IAP.

Game Center leaderboards provided for all modes, plus Achievements.

Another great Minotaur Project release.
