Neon Runners: Craft & Dash, a new side-scrolling platformer, is now available on Android. This globally launched title features charming anime girls navigating challenging obstacle courses. A key feature is the ability to create and share custom courses with other players.

Anykraft, the developer, clearly draws inspiration from Nintendo's successful Mario Maker formula. The map-sharing aspect, a popular feature even before Mario Maker, is a central element of Neon Runners. Players control adorable anime girls, skillfully maneuvering through perilous obstacles on both pre-designed and user-generated levels.

However, the game incorporates a controversial element: an emphasis on Bitcoin. Players earn in-game sweepstakes tickets redeemable for rewards, including cryptocurrency—a feature the developers prominently highlight. This integration may be a deterrent for some players.

The "Craft" aspect of the game's title likely refers to the course creation functionality, potentially serving as an SEO boost as well. The gameplay appears fast-paced and engaging, boasting vibrant graphics and a variety of challenging obstacles.

The inclusion of cryptocurrency rewards and a friend referral program might dissuade some players. Nevertheless, those unfazed by these elements can enjoy the game's core mechanics.
