Canabalt is a Platforming game available on the IPHONE.

Canabalt is a Platforming game. Platform games task you with getting from point A to point B. The world you journey through is usually based on different levels, and populated with enemies, switches and lifts to be negotiated. As you work through each level you pick up various collectables that accrue score, special abilities and access to hidden areas.

Soulful Gamer review Tue, 20 Apr 2010

Canabalt's simplicity and single minded game play is as endearing as it is addictive. Sound, and grey scale visuals combine to offer your senses all they need for you to survive. On Flash or iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch, Canabalt is heart stopping exhilarating fun.

From the moment the lights dim and Canabalt's three-hour introductory movie starts, the player is drawn into a mythology as deep as "The Lord of the Rings" and as fantastical as "Avatar". As the millions of dollars of production value manifest themselves as the rich visual tapestry of the protagonist's life, every detail is explored to the nth degree. Even Tolkien himself would get a migraine from absorbing the sheer volume of information presented in this documentary. By the third act, you understand the protagonist as if he was a brother, and you're ready to join him on his quest as a Samwise to his Frodo.
