Manuganu – Casual Game Review
Manuganu is a Casual/Action game from Alper Sarikaya, first launched in 16th May 2013.
It’s rated 9+ and currently has 13+ ratings on the App Store.
What Makes Manuganu Stand Out
PURE ACTION
Run, jump and slide from ropes, dodge rocks! Not enough? There is much more in Manuganu. Avoid swinging hammers and jump over moving ice blocks. Don’t get burned and jump between walls to collect coins and medallions. Break stone blocks and activate platforms before you fall into fog and much more…
A RUNNING ADVENTURE
Manuganu is a 3D side-scroller running game, in which you control the boy “Manuganu”.
Unlike other usual running games, Manuganu brings on the “Halt feature” to avoid swinging rocks, hammers, flames and other enemies with the right timing. Another important feature of Manuganu is the ability to switch from “running” mode to “rope climbing” mode when needed. But be careful! This mode has its own challenges.

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
We managed to only play about 4 minutes before the character fell through the floor and the game got stuck.
Unique game with a cute graphics! Hope to have more levels.
The game is so fun and we finished. It really needs updated with more levels. Pleaaaasseeeee.
We absolutely love this game and look forward to the second one to come out.
Very fun to play! We wish there were more levels though.
Please add more levels we are Waiting for more we have completed all the levels.
Great graphics, controls & sounds. What more can you ask for. Add more levels please.
Add more levels, more difficulty, and customizable controls. Very smooth gameplay. Sexy graphics. Kinda easy.
Well worth the money! Super fun and will keep you occupied for a few hours! Update with more levels soon, PLEASE.
We've played through the first 20 levels and so far this game gets so many things right that we had to stop to write this review. Kudos! As a platformer and not a random endless runner, the hand crafted levels with clear end-goals are welcome indeed. Level design so far seems spot on with each one introducing you to new skills as they get progressively more challenging. Coins are placed in all the right spots to give the player the opportunity to make a risk/reward decision. Character flow through the levels feels smooth and players have multiple path options through some levels. The graphics are beautiful and the textures are clean. Special attention has been given to lighting and fog. Overall it makes for a fun and appealing visual style. Creaking ropes, critter sound effects, and the music seem a natural fit and add to the ambience. Thanks for an entertaining evening.
This game is unique in its own way. It's very basic but at the same time fun! The graphics help make the game look cool too! For a 1$ this game is worth it. Definitely add more levels in the future though.
