Talk:Temple Run

Does anyone think I should start this page about the app? --J (t) 21:55, 17 December 2011 (UTC)

The "Engine" used is not Canabolt. I could see how someone with little knowledge of the topic could misunderstand by the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.151.13.188 (talk) 20:15, 7 February 2012 (UTC)

Clearly it's not a engine, but Canabalt did define the genre this game sits in. Should it not be mentioned? Somnolentsurfer (talk) 14:40, 9 June 2013 (UTC)

Someone please edit, an Android version is not yet released (2/8/12). There was a phony version on the market, but it has since been removed. http://threatpost.com/en_us/blogs/phony-temple-run-game-android-plays-android-ios-app-gap-020712 70.224.170.4 (talk) 19:56, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

Suggested Improvements

No Image !!! No mention of endless run glitch — Preceding unsigned comment added by OS X Epic (talk • contribs) 20:07, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

No reason for the glitch.

In the character write-ups, it appears that there is some soft racism and sexism. It's odd that the occupations of all the men are listed, but the women are "girls," especially when their occupations are listed on the character select screen. Moreover, why is Barry's occupation in scare quotes? Seems like an odd choice, and this reader, at least, jumped to racist/sexist conclusions. Should be modified.

They are not sexist and please refrain from using harsh words. --J (t) 01:14, 3 May 2012 (UTC)

I would add in the popularity section, that this game inspired many other Video game clones, like "Agent Dash" and "TheEndApp". Also, what is a fake game? —LazyAndroid (talk) 06:07, 21 August 2012 (UTC) I'm thinking there could be more about Temple Run: Oz'.' Like maybe a picture, or a few more details about it.

Fair use images

We need a screenshot, but how can we obtain this? I don't know about fair use... --J (t) 15:53, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

Edit request on 27 April 2012

Please replace "Scarlett Fox, a girl with Scarlett Fox, a female explorer. Please replace "Karma Lee, another girl" with "Karma Lee, Far East Female".

The article seems sexist using the term "girl" for the female characters, but giving the male characters specific titles.

Also Barry the "cop" should be Barry the cop, its explicitly states in the game he is a cop, this seems a bit racist. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.173.225.33 (talk) 13:40, 1 May 2012 (UTC)

I do too (as the creator of this article) and I have made these changes! I was the one who made the forgetful remarks. This was purely coincidental and this was NOT sexist. Please don't use the term "sexist"; it is not true. If you think you can make some awesome edits, please login. Thanks! --J (t) 01:10, 3 May 2012 (UTC)

Also, playing the game is NOT a reliable source! --J (t) 05:45, 28 June 2012 (UTC)

Suggested change

Montana Smith is not a "Cowboy", as this is never stated in the game. He is "the second greatest explorer ever" and appears to be a relatively clear parody of Indiana Jones, considering his name, and the references to Montana's hat when he dies in-game. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.54.115.185 (talk) 18:21, 24 June 2012 (UTC)

Please file this as an edit request. I am not going to make the change, so I suggest you log in. --J (t) 21:16, 25 June 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for nominating this article. Unfortunately, it has too many problems to become a good article at this time, so I am going to fail it for now. The biggest problem is that most of the article is unsourced. Specifically, the Gameplay section has no sources, the Spinoffs section is almost entirely without sources, and the Reception section is only partially sourced. Also, a lot of the sourced details in the lead should be moved down into the body, and the lead should be rewritten to cover the entire article more evenly. In particular, a new Release section would be a good addition to the article, where you could put the information about 50 most-downloaded apps and the 1 million downloads. I'd probably remove the Popularity section and move most of that into the new Release section as well. Once all that is done, you should submit this for another, more in-depth review. Sorry, and good luck! —Torchiest ^talk_edits 13:40, 2 August 2012 (UTC)

Edit request on 24 January 2013

Please change 'It is expected for release on Android by the end of January 2013.' to 'It was later released on Android on January 24,2013.' Priyesh C (talk) 16:02, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

Done. Shawn5150 (talk) 00:50, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

Inline citations still an issue?

Just wondering if inline citations are still an issue for this article? Looks improved to me. Synergee (talk) 03:12, 8 April 2013 (UTC)
