    I've been craving a good endless runner lately. Any suggestions? Preferably ones where you can obtain upgrades/accessories?

    Both ski safari games are probably my all time favorite endless runners. It has everything that you asked for and more. It's soooooo fun and super exciting. What is more fun than doing a triple backflip while riding a yeti while you are escaping an avalanche by the skin of your teeth? :)

    I can pretty much guarantee that you will love this game. I recommend getting the coin doubler at the beginning. It's totally worth it.

    I am really really enjoying it so far. I'll definitely keep this on my device along side jetpack joyride :D the only thing that its missing though is a save feature. Thank you for recommending this!! I'll definitely be keeping it on my device for a long time.

    Also, what are the stars placed ontop of the levels, upgrades, and accessories?

    I'm really glad your enjoying it. :)
    Those stars are more missions that you can unlock by getting those accessories, levels, power ups. What do you mean by a safe feature? Do you mean iCloud?

    Ahh ok thats cool!

    And I mean like a save feature where you can close the app mid-game and when you come back to it later it'll let you continue from where you left off, such as in Jetpack Joyride. Play throughs can get a bit lengthy at times :)

    Oh, I see what your saying. Hmmm, I never really thought about that. My runs are not usually too long maybe 7 minutes max.

    Thats pretty long for a high score chaser game :p

    Thanks again though! I'm really enjoying it, idk how I missed this one. Though I do remember it being at the top of the charts a long time ago, I have no idea why I didn't pick it up then.

    Punch Quest would be my choice, it captures the charm of arcade gaming perfectly and melds the best qualities of a sidescrolling beat-em-up with an endless runner.

    It's not even half as good as it once was now that it became free to play, filled with insanely stupid upgrades and extra gibberiah, but Whale Trail is still one of my favorite endless games and probably even still one of my favorite ios games. Because of the wonderful soundtrack, beautiful art and smooth controls.

    I would instantly say Boson X if not for the "with upgrades and stuff" part of the OP.

    Here are my recommendations:

    Adventure Beaks
    Zombie Tsunami
    Captain Antarctica
    TMNT Rooftop Run
    Dead Ahead
    Indiana Stone
    Run N Gun
    One Epic Knight
    TheEndApp
    Temple Run 2

    Spooky Hoofs, an underated game. I don't think many people know of this game, it's an horror inspired endless runner with boss battles. It's a really great game.

    Agreed. Pretty old, but still pretty good.

    Gamesmold's other games are pretty good too... Blood Roofs (a lovecraft-inspired bahind the back runner) and the ever-unique Shadow Vamp are 2 of my favorites.

    Yep, after loving jetpack joyride I came across punch quest as a means of scratching the itch that game had created. To me punch quest is a little bit better than jetpack but I've found that I need my endless runners to have a combative element.
