What Makes RUNA Stand Out
Arrange the blocks and spread the light.
Irradiate the way up to the highest sky.
Set the order, set the route, set the focus.
Let the energy flows on the path of the Light.
RUNA – A way throughout the shadows.
A unique journey among stars, skies and distant lands.

Community Insight:
First levels help you learn quickly.
We like the design and its semi-challenging. Id play it again.
Clean. Elegant. Confounding. Addictive. Play it.
Solid game with a solid premise and some great puzzles, but it feels like it ends way too quickly. For $1.99 we expected a game at least one-and-a-half, maybe two, times as long.
We dont appreciate Ads in a paid game. Shame on you.
One of our favorite puzzle games.
Good game. We like the challenge. We think there is harder puzzles that can be come up with to add higher levels. Bigger as well with more jumps and movement. Can not wait to see.
This game has a lot of polish. The tutorial levels make the game simple to understand. Quickly gets challenging, but still fun.
For a 2 usd game is incredibly short… Good concept though.
We enjoy the challenge of these puzzles. However, after completing about every fifth game, a dialogue comes up urging us to try a different game, or beta test, or something else. These are annoying, especially since we paid for the game. Fair enough if this were a free game, but it wasnt free, we paid for it. Feels like a bait-and-switch to pay for a game that then advertises to us. UPDATE: Thanks for the swift reply! We do enjoy the game and the quality of the puzzles, which really make one think about how each solution is achieved. We realize 2 stars does not reflect that, so Ive added a star. The ads we mentioned happened again, right after completing game 7 in level 3. A dialogue asked us if we wanted to also try a game called KLAC.
Finished in roughly 90 minutes. No fan fair after we did, too. Even closed the app and reopened just to make sure there wasnt anything we missed. The puzzle mechanic straddles between clever and outright confusing. Didnt care much for how every few levels it would stop to ask if youd like to try another one of their games. Stop showing us this. It really takes you out of the flow. Edit: Suppose our score before was too harsh but we dont think even if we had left it that it destroyed your rating. Looks like you are doing just fine. We could go into more detail about how switching puzzle pieces felt clunky or that often it felt like we lucked into the solution to justify the rating. On positive, it looks well polished and has a style to it. Its near flawless with its mechanics, only encountering a single bug in the later levels. The game crashed when the platform flipped, but the puzzle completed after we came back from restarting the app.
This game effectively requires us to rate it. So we did.
Fun game, but they should cut the nag rate by half at least. When did paid apps start showing ads? It's also incredibly short. 40 puzzles including the training. Finally, the preview pictures are inaccurate. For example, puzzle a7 is nothing like the picture.
Great puzzle games are few and far between. This is a great one. Deep, simple to grasp, and rewarding. We could add more but why? Buy it.
Its an overall good game. We would have given it 5 stars if there were clear instructions.
The puzzles look so simple, but they are much more complex Then one might think. We liked it so much we invested in the game .give it a whirl.
