I played and ranked EVERY Temple Run Game so you don’t have to...

- In 2024 Temple Run has been completely overshadowed by Subway Surfers. There are so many games that copied Temple Run's style that its hard to believe it was the pioneer of the genre. But, as always, its creators have milked the series dry, resulting in quite a few games you probably didn't know existed. So let's go through the entire history of the series and rank EVERY game in order of release.
Which Temple Run game is your favorite? Do you prefer it over Subway Surfers? And do you agree with my rankings?
The next mobile game series I'd like to do is Bloons, let me know if you'd wanna see it, and if there are other series I should cover!

Making an IDLE game about an ENDLESS RUNNER is literally the most sick ironic joke ever (the bad kind of sick)
And they get to be game devs! What a sick joke!
Makes me SICK
One of the devs for that game is my college profesor
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅@@artythebear
Are you genuinely mad?
You forgot to mention that when you die, the game over screen consists of a picture showing your death.
Yeah that was always a nice touch
fr
I thought it would be all the clones but instead I found out there's an entire series 😅
Haha yeah I know it’s crazy
@@Jake.Miller
Temple run is not orginal
It is copied from crash bandicoot 1996
@@arindammishra2329bandicoot isn't an endless runner with oversimplified gameplay
I remember playing Temple Run Oz back when Oz The Great and Powerful was in theaters. It was fine, but it loses points for not having Bruce Lee or Usain Bolt as playable characters like in 2
Haha true I would love to have usain bolt
Idea: I watched and ranked every video game movie
There are more than enough video game movies to be able to make more than one part
It’s a good idea
Well, 95% Of Them Are AWFUL, wink wink, Mario 93
@@ConNinGame Super Mario Bros 1993 is a good movie in an ironic way
I’ll be talking about that movie in the video I’m working on right now!!!
For me it was Tuesday
Temple run was the og fnf, so good that everyone started making thier own versions to the point that the original got forgotten
Haha accurate
The only difference being is that when the original game gets an update everyone starts talking about it, but not with temple run
Not gonna lie, Minion Rush is a classic
You're more of a classic
No you’re breathtaking
@@Jake.Miller I will never leave the minion rush community
? Huh
It’s wild how many game company copy tumble run💀
Tumble rub goes wild
Never make something successful, you will be flooded and ruined
@@Jake.Miller Agreed
"Tumble run" 💀💀💀
Wut that’s the original game
15:17 Schaffrillas jumpscare
He’s making me feel unsafe
-"pick a random franchise"
-"Perry the Platypus"
You will cough in 3 days
That spider man game gave me an overdose of nostalgia
So classic
@@Jake.Miller I played this game to death years ago…
Still one of the greatest endless runners ever made. I will never forgive them for deleting it.
Oz is a masterpiece of a temple run game.
If you didn’t put it in S I would’ve given Stinky Steve the BATH treatment.
Thank god steve is safe
Baths kill stinky steve
@@Jake.Miller
*good to know*
Stinky Steve is in danger
@@Jake.Miller I only have 31 cents in my bank account.
after you do the bloons series ranking, you should rank each and every tower AND all their upgrades :)
lets just say.... you might need all A-Z tiers to come back for THAT video
Haha yeah no kidding
@@Jake.Millerjust finish all map in chimps! looking forward to it lol
"The ACTUAL history of btd6" by youtuber Orange should fill you in on all the games info
Agreed
Good to know thank you very much
@@Jake.Millerit will take 3 hours if your time
How bout Pepsiman?
Okay, but an endless runner where you're Tai Lung from Kung Fu Panda, trying to escape that tower he was trapped in sounds badass
Actually an amazing idea
I thought there were only 2 games wtf happened
If everything can get an autorunner, where's MY autorunner!? C'mon guys, I'm hot and awesome like Perry The Platypus 😡
Haha yeah you deserve it
They did you dirty bro
*I feel you*
7:01 Huh. Wasn't expecting that
Was looking for this exact response, its so jarring in comparison to the rest of the video
@@pman7588okay yeah i was wondering if anyone else found it out of place, ive been following jake for a while and his style of humor has never been that
It isn’t my sense of humor, I really regret putting it in the video. I think I might sensor the image so it isn’t in the video anymore
What was it?
@@pman7588what even was it?? its just blurred now
7:01 😐
wtf even was it?? its just blurred now
@@VijiogFritoan racist meme about black people and temple run
7:02 ???
man i love when you shout but still with a calm voice, so cool!
exellent video, continue making these, you make my day better!!
Thanks! So nice to hear!
I was so scared you'd diss on my beloved temple run oz and was so happy you loved it as much as child me
No amount of words can adequately reflect my hate for match 3 games, I wouldn't be surprised if you made a tier list on just match 3 knock offs
Haha I’ve thought about it. Just don’t know how entertaining it would be
I remember I played a game called "Dark Corridors" It's a temple run game but it's mix with horror, like while running the jumpscares are the obstacles and when the chaser caught you, you'll get a fullscreen jumpscare
How dare you mention the spiderman game 0:15 like its just any other endless runner, gosh I miss this game and am still so mad they delisted it/stopped the game :(
Temple Run deserves to be up there when talking about indie game success stories.
"I thought there were only FOUR Temple Run games." - Bro, I was sure there were only two.
Haha you’re right you’re mind gets to be way more blown
7:01 is crazy
was just about to comment this... threw me off a lil ngl
Haha that’s just the game dude
@@Jake.Miller 🤨😑 hmm
very racist. i was so confused
@@kaloveshoran Yeaah. His response was a lil weird too. I love your channel Jake but woof thats a wild frame from ur video.
A ranking of Temple Run/Subway Surfers-like games could be pretty fun to watch!
Yeah I’ll have to think about it!
What's up with the random racist meme at 7:00 ? Am I missing it's relation or you just wanted to blast that on main?
right, wtf. what a weirdo. he’s responding to damn near everyone but the people calling it out too..
I honestly just don’t know what I can say. I shouldn’t have put it in the video, I feel really dumb about it and have honestly considered blurring the screen at that part
@@Jake.Miller If you truly feel bad TH-cam lets you cut out parts now too, snip that part out in youtube creator studio. or if you really want to stand by how you feel, take it down and reupload it, dont a p about it if you recognize your mistake. It looks really sus and it might effect your algorithim outreach if you want a self interested reason too
@@spyczechyoo what in Gods name was the image of?? its blurred and after finishing the vid i see a lot of people confused about it??
@@VijiogFrito it was a 4chan style racial stereotype meme and it didn't really make sense in the context either so it read like trying to slip it in as a dogwhistle or blink and you miss it racial flashbang (which it kinda was regardless of intent)
Love that these introductions are getting more and more informative
hello Jake, big fan of your videos, I'm always a lurker, do you only cover mobile games? or do you cover console games too? if so, I think you'd prolly like the lego games series by TT games
Through the rose tinted glasses of my youth I'm certain the greatest endless runner was the spiderman game. I'm pretty sure it featured changing environments, boss battles and a near endless roster of unlockable spidermen and women. I will not attempt to variefy any of these claims in fear of 1. Finding out it no longer exists or 2. Becoming hopelessly addicted. The idea that it isn't as good as I remember is non existant because I know it's S teir and will die on this hill.
what the fuck is up with that super racist meme at 7:01??
right, wtf. what a weirdo. he’s responding to damn near everyone but the people calling it out too..
Be honest, Jake Miller. How many diaper changes did you need after playing so many Temple Run games with all the scary apes?
Let’s just say I’m fresh outta diapies and I need a clean up on aisle 4
@@Jake.Miller clean up isle my pants😋
You should definitely make a tier list of all of the most popular 3d endless runner games
7:01 jake miller bringing back 2010’s edgy era confirmed🤨
wait what was it?
Temple run oz just gave me 100 memories I totally forgot about that game on my fire tablet
You forgot the java/blackberry guy dangerous games, they were runners too and the further you got the more the environment would change which honestly felt pretty fresh, from memory I think they were pretty decent
Hope there will be a ranked every temple Run characters video soon
Aw man, temple run was such a classic, this video is very well researched and perfectly put together, keep it up!!
Thank you so much! Glad you think so!
7:02 is craaazy
What was it? It's censored now
what even was it??
i wanna know how the fuck even one guy actually used the motion controls in template run like some kind of insane madman.
The meme at 7:00 is crazy
When I was a little kid, my cousin was playing Temple run and I couldn’t sleep in the night because of the monkeys as it was the most spooky video game at the time of being 6
People not around during that time don’t understand the IMPACT Temple Run had on pop culture when it first came out. If you didn’t have this app you weren’t relevant
wtf was that random racist picture?
Seeing references to Oz the Great and Powerful always makes me feel nauseous because I got really bad food poisoning when I went to see it and threw up all over the movie theater bathroom for like an hour
That’s the worst, sorry to make you relive that
@@Jake.Miller lmao no worries, at least I can look back at it and laugh now!! I would have completely forgotten the movie existed if not for that incident
Haha no kidding what a forgettable movie to have that memory tied to. I have a similar memory like that for Shrek 4 of all things
How did it take me this long to learn that there are more Temple Run games than just Temple Run and Temple Run 2?
The football player was my favorite character in Temple Run
Jake you never fail to make my day
So glad to hear!
Why does temple run brave look so cooked here, I swear i remembered it to look 1000x better 😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏
Haha I’m sorry but you remember wrong
Another Jake Miller classic!
Happy Cinco de Mayo, Jake Miller!
Oh yeah! Thanks, you too!
ohhhh my god I LOVED max adventure... i had no idea it was made by them. i was so addicted to that game.
Temple Run OZ was my fav out of this franchise, I don't know why by I thought that the game's animation and controls were much more fluid.
god i miss that spider-man endless runner. it was so fun, especially when you got further into it and got to play as alternate versions of spider-man. the bosses were cool too.
Ngl kinda wished you'd rank Temple Run like games as well, aka Sonic temple run, Minions temple run game etc
Problem is, Sonic Dash is not a temple run clone, its a subway surfers clone
Does anyone know how was this game with Spiderman called which appears at 17:46 ? I think it's the game I played as a child and it would be awesome to find it and check if it was actually so good or is it just a nostalgia.
Spiderman Unlimited. It doesn’t exist anymore but I think there’s a fan remake
@@Jake.Miller thank you so much Jake
Of course!
@@Jake.Miller so I actually found original game and it's better than I thought, it's still not as awesome as I remembered but maybe my 6 years old brain just wasn't as fussy as it is now but still it's a great runner game
Aww man, he forgot the chuck e cheese one where you can use it to claim tickets
never realized about how much temple run i’ve played until i watched this lmao. i do NOT remember brave looking that bad
Video idea: something similar to this, but maybe you could do an every subway surfers game ranked, including subway surfers, sonic dash, minion rush, talking Tom run, and all the others..,
Maybe it could be a two parter or something if you don’t get to them all 😁👍
I remember playing Temple Run 2 back in 2015 and unlocking everything just by playing. The problem was, I wasn't using Google Play Games at the time so my progress wasn't saved, at all.
Still, fond memories.
After watching this video, I just realised I've played so many different iterations of Temple Run as a kid 😅 I vividly remember the Brave one and wanted to play the Oz one so bad but my phone couldn't support it at the time lol
I didn't know who Usain Bolt was before playing Temple Run so I thought some guy legally changed his name because he liked the game so much. I was also 5 at the time
Haha biggest temple run 2 fan of all time changed his name
Cool video I had no idea Temple run had more games besides one and two.
Haha I know it’s crazy
Woah, its jake miller! I love that guy!
Also have you heard of the genre of games where you beat up a guy in a small room?
Haha games like beat the boss or what?
a lot of years ago i was at a friends house and he had a knockoff of this with a very funny spin
you were a buff guy that was running after a skeleton thing.
You had to smash thing sometimes and sometimes you could hit the skeleton ...i don't remember anything else but i wish i could find it
11:05 what about angry birds star wars?
Also, I feel like the idle game had a lot of missed potential - you could run to collect some gems or whatever to power your idle machines which make gold, but the stronger machines require better/rarer gems which can only be found deeper, requiring you to spend your gold to buy power ups and unlock new maps.
0:07 Dont forget about Banana kong
Yeah but that ones 2D
33:06 There are two great videos covering the history of bloons on TH-cam, one shorter made by Shyguymask covering only the mainline games ( titled "evolution of bloons tower defense" ) and one WAY longer by OrangE covering every single game in the bloons franchise ( titled "the ACTUAL history of bloons" )
Interesting. I’ll have to look into them!
@@Jake.Miller whens the mobile games part 4 coming
not rushing you btw
gyat
Nobody dies from sadness silly
explodes
Well, like most of the people, I didn't even knew there is more TR games than 1 and 2
We do be temple running with this one
We running them temples
when i got my first touchscreen phone in 2014 the 1st game i got from my friend is Temple run OZ and man i had damn fun with it
This game was such a childhood staple.... so many memories😭😭😭😭
Seeing him review lotta mobile games makes me hope he reviews the Halfbrick Studios games. They got so much variety that there is so many games to probably talk about.
I probably will! We’ll see
The original Temple Run was one of the first mobile games i have ever played. Also i always loved the game over images of the characters, as a kid i always found them to be funny.
I literally used to play this so much when i was 11/12 me and my sister would take turns i had all the characters and my runs would usually last super long lol
1:26 wait til he hears about the temple run board game i have. lmao i obviously wasnt far enough in the video but i had just seen the board game cleaning
When you say you’re doing the bloons series, I’d recommend the Ninja Kiwi Archive for the original flash versions of bloons, Bloons Tower Defense 1-5, and Bloons super monkey (the app Bloons Super Monkey 2 is different from the flash version.) but the city game on steam is the same as the flash version from what I can tell.
Hope my confused ramblings help.
Thank you I really appreciate it
25:12 thata why i always look up pokémon rule 34 trying to find pokémon café mix when i forget the name
Haha good idea
When I want to play I usually get out my old phones and hope they still work because the early versions are not filled with ads like the current version. And one of the old phones has Brave. Didn't ever play it much.
Does anyone know about the jar games for phones with buttons
Anyone notice this guy is discussing templerun while subway surfer themr is running in the background😂
Man an Indiana Jones Temple Run game would’ve made sense as another Disney TR reskin after Oz, Indi running with the fertility idle while being chased by the Hovitos and having other characters like Satipo, Marion, Sallah and even updates that include characters from later movies like Willie and maybe Short Round from Temple of Doom, Jones sr and maybe that medieval knight from Last Crusade and maybe Mutt from Crystal Skull
This video being randomly recommended to me is how I found out there are more than 2 temple run games
It was fate
have you ever ranked all the supercell games (rhetorical question, I'm a true Jake miller fan and would know you haven't) but I think it would be really fun to go through some of their more forgotten games like rush wars and see if they actually had potential
Yeah it could be fun
I liked the Crash Bandicoot runner, it was even level based and had so much potential
I miss it every day
Honestly my favorite death quotes Is “who let Barney out of his cage” with the picture of a raging hippo
Me and my mom used to compete with high scores in the original temple run man those were good times
Wait a minute,there are multiple temple run games,I thought there was only one,it’s crazy to see how many there actually are
Yeah it’s nuts
No way i read this at 14:51, like
Getting ads every 2 min is great fun
What's the song at 22:10 ?
It’s a donkey Kong mine cart section
Here’s a funny story: About 10 years ago, I used an outdated android tablet which had major issues running, well, anything. While looking for games, I found a game called “Temple Run 3” This game was so funny because the sounds and ragdoll physics were something else. Yes, it had ragdoll physics.
The game we always wanted 😫
I tried temple run when i was a kid like maybe 2013 and I dowloaded it again recently and at first i was confused cuz of all the skins and stuff , I remember playing TR 2 and OZ and i totally forgot playing brave. I gasped when you mentioned the bow shooting in the middle of the run. That's the only thing i remember of brave. Well now i am felling nostalgic and i will download TR OZ to play since that was my favorite out of all the IMANGI games.
Nice! Hope it’s as good as you remember
imo the best endless runner is the Pitfall one, the production value of that game was insane!
i did not expect schaffrillas to appear in a temple run video
btw you cant just sneak in that you wanna do a bloons ranking and then move on like its nothing bloons is my childhood and i shall now request it in every video until it comes out
LIKE BRO THEY MADE A BUBBLESHOOTER RIPOFF AND IT WAS ACTUALLY REALLY GOOD
The original Temple Run is SO FUN but the issue I've always had was there'd be these parts that were literally just impossible. You'd have to jump over a tree only for there to be another tree you'd have to jump over at the EXACT SPOT where you'd land. Even with good timing, you'd fail and >have< to use one of your revives and watch an ad.
That is true. You turn the corner and immediately die sometimes
Please do the BTD series :D
