With this exciting game, even couch potatoes can find their inner free-runner. Vector is chock-full of exciting parkour moves and dozens of levels. It's a ton of fun if you like side-scrolling chase games, but most of its content requires a ton of play or cash to unlock.

At first, it's very difficult to find the small settings button to turn off the game's blaring music. That's the only knock on the game's appearance, though. The graphics are very smooth and run without a hitch, even on phones with outdated processors. Vector doesn't start off challenging, but it gets really tough fast. Timing jumps perfectly is worth it, just so you can see the game's cool jump animations. The game has a ton of levels, but by the time you hit the second one, you're already behind on the coins you need to unlock must-have moves. You can unlock some special jumps and levels through playing, but most require coins. In order to get them all, you're going to have to repeat some levels you've already beaten a few times. Every time you finish a level, an ad pops up offering thousands of coins for completing surveys or downloading apps.

This game seems to be an obvious cash grab for developers, but that doesn't make it less enjoyable. If you don't mind the annoying pop-up ads that come loaded on most good games anyway, you'll love Vector. It's challenging enough to keep you coming back for more. That's good, because you need to play it a lot to even think about unlocking all of the tricks you want.

Developer's Description

Vector is an exciting, arcade-style game featuring you as the exceptional free runner who won't be held down by the system. The game opens with a view into a totalitarian world where freedom and individually is nothing more than a distant dream. But the heart of a freerunner is strong, and you soon break free. Run, vault, slide and climb using extraordinary techniques based on the urban ninja sport of Parkour all while being chased by "Big Brother" who's sole purpose is to capture you and bring you back.

Inspired by the practice and principles of Parkour, Vector's intuitive controls please players of all levels, and sophisticated level designs challenge the most demanding players with fast-paced timing puzzles as the traceur "flows" over the dystopian rooftops.

Game Features:

- Arcade gameplay from the makers of the hit Facebook game

- Astoundingly lifelike Parkour-inspired moves made possible by Cascadeur animation tools

- 20 challenging levels (40 in the "Deluxe Version")

- Quick to learn, challenging to master

The best parkour-inspired action game! Vector lets you break free and run! Don't get caught!
