Draft:Bendy in Nightmare Run

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  • Comment: Got only 2 major reviews, and one very sparse Common Sense Media review with very little in the form of opinions. While this is borderline I think it's better off being part of the Bendy franchise article, especially given its flash-in-the-pan nature. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 03:05, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Seems to fail WP:GNG; needs a reception section that has several reviews in reliable sources. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 19:56, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

Bendy in Nightmare Run, sometimes referred to as Bendy Nightmare Run or simply Bendy Run, is an episodic endless runner mobile game developed by Karman Interactive Ltd. and published by Joey Drew Studios Inc.[1] It was developed as a spinoff to the Bendy franchise and the Indie episodic horror survival video game Bendy and the Ink Machine.[2] Unlike other games in the franchise, the game introduces Bendy as the protagonist rather than the danger. The game was released for IOS and Android devices in 2018.[3] The game is completely free,[4] coupled with microtransactions for additional purchases.[5] The game is currently unplayable due to technical limitations.

Gameplay

[edit]

The game is centered around running from cartoon 'boss' enemies and attacking them with weapons ranging from damage. The player can also trade the game's currency, bacon soup cans, to upgrade their characters. The player can also buy skins and different playable characters such as Boris the Dog or Alice the Angel.[6] In stages, the selected protagonist runs towards the screen[7][8] and the player can swipe to control them. The player can pick up soup cans scattered throughout the level later used for goods.[8]
