I'm sure you're all familiar with the fable about the turtle and the hare, where the slow and steady turtle beats the hasty, careless rabbit in a race.
Well, Run Sheldon is based on that tale, but since a runner based on an slow-moving turtle wouldn't exactly be a riveting gameplay experience, Run Sheldon stars a rather speedy turtle.
Sheldon the turtle is that very same turtle who won the "Tortoise and the Hare" Golden Racing Trophy, but in this game, those angry, defeated hares are seeking vengeance.

To survive their wrath, Sheldon has to make a run for it, racing as fast as he can while jumping on rabbits to smash them into the ground. The game incorporates a range of different environments and gameplay elements, instructing players to swim and fly by leaping on floating hares.
There are several different power ups, which can be upgraded with the coins that Sheldon collects, and any excess cash can be spent on fun clothing and accessories. Have I mentioned that this is probably the cutest game you'll play all week? That's right, the graphics are impressive, Sheldon is adorable, and even those naughty rabbits are pretty easy on the eyes.
Want to know the best part? Run Sheldon is entirely free to download. Get it now and watch out for our full review, which is coming in a few days.
