Robot Unicorn Attack
Turner BroadcastingWe don't even know where to begin with Robot Unicorn Attack. To be honest, this may be one of the weirdest games we've ever played. Keep your robotic unicorn afloat in a world filled with rainbows, fairies and dolphins, all to the happiest song Erasure has ever written. It's cheese poured on top of weird poured on top of crazy and it all just seems to work. Robot Unicorn Attack's sequel can't even top this weirdness. Must be because of the Erasure song.

Sonic Dash
SegaIt's about time Sonic entered the world of endless runners. Who better to join the genre than the guy who sort of trademarked running like a bat out of hell? Sonic may not re-invent the genre, but the colorful graphics, blazing speed and tight controls Sonic Ball our blue hedgehog straight onto our list. A few upgrades to the game by Sega, and who knows? Sonic could find himself speeding up to the top of the 10 Best Endless Running Games list sooner rather than later.

Tiny Wings HD
Andreas IlligerHere's a title that's more of a flier than a runner. The goal in Tiny Wings is to get to as many islands as you can before the sun sets and night catches up to your bird. Simple one touch controls make the game easy to play but difficult to master. Developer Andreas Illiger is always updating and adding more levels, retina display, more birds to choose from and a cool new racing feature called Flight School. Tiny Birds is a great addition to your endless runner collection.

Save Them All

The high scores reset every 24 hours, creating a mad dash for players to always stay on top. Can you save the world everyday?

Punch Quest
Rocketcat GamesWhat makes an endless runner great? When it's so addicting that you can't stop playing it to see if you can make it just a little bit farther than before. Punch Quest has had this effect on all of us here at Arcade Sushi, and the surprise App Store hit has not only won us over, it's forced us to place it as the #1 entry in our list of the 10 Best iOS Endless Running Games, knocking Jetpack Joyride off of its long standing reign. Don't believe us when we say it's that good? Let us put it this way -- we still play it on a daily basis. And that kind of addiction is all we want from a game.
