"The upside of this design is the level of excitement and challenge. Races in The Run can be thrilling as players struggle to avoid traffic, the cops, and other racers to be number one. The handling of each car is refined, and the game conveniently rates each car’s handling difficulty, so experienced drivers can go straight for the unruly super cars, while more casual players can stick to the easier rides."
