There is a lot of trial and error involved here, just like with the previous game. You eventually lose count of the number of times you hit the restart button on the level because you missed a Lum or a critical jump. Even the standard, non-Invasion levels can be frustratingly difficult at times, but only if like me you are hell-bent on getting each and every Lum in every level. Jungle Run was a difficult game and that continues with Fiesta Run as well. Here as well you have 100 Lums and four Teensies to collect, which is easier said than done. Getting all the Lums in each level also unlocks a special Invasion version of that level, which is a lot more difficult with a different look and a lot more obstacles thrown in to make your life hell. You can get up to four Teensies for each level (one for every 25 Lums you collect) and the more Teensies you get the further you can progress in the game by unlocking new levels. The more you collect, the more Teensies you get. Speaking of lums, you still have to collect 100 of them in each level. You can try to bounce off a wall sometimes to go back a little but often this doesn’t work all that well, which can be a bit frustrating if that one lum is just out of reach and you have to restart the level to get it. The character keeps running straight and will automatically turn around when the level demands it.

(One nice change is the ability to swap controls for jump and punch around, something I pointed out was required in the Jungle Run review.)Īs with Jungle Run, you can’t make the character stop, change speed or direction in Fiesta Run. Not only does it simplify controls tremendously, it also adds a nice twist to the gameplay.

Removing any kind of movement controls takes care of one of the major bugbear of touchscreen devices, virtual joystick. Over time you unlock other abilities such as punch, glide and wall run but they come with a corresponding change in level design that necessitate their use so they don’t give you any real advantage. It’s still a 3D side-scrolling game, where the character runs automatically and all you can do is jump. The gameplay in Fiesta Run is identical to that in Jungle Run.
