Endless-runners are so plentiful these days that we can't be blamed for sighing at the sight of yet another one sprinting into view.

But Ravenous Games's Random Runners isn't just another endless-runner.

No, this is a spin-off from the Gold Award-winning Random Heroes and its Silver Award-winning sequel Random Heroes 2.

So, yes, the eccentric, and slightly cheeky, Random Heroes crew return equipped with chicken suits, hockey masks, and top hats here. Just for a change, they'll be taking on "the most cliché bad guys ever". Hmmmm, you guessed it - zombies.

There are 45 levels and an Endless Mode to run-and-gun across in Random Runners. Furthermore, there are 26 uniquely skilled characters from which to choose.

Of course, there's also an assortment of firearms available with which to blast away the rotting flesh. The global leaderboards will ensure you've always got a score to beat, too.

In the gameplay trailer above, you can clearly see that Random Runners contains the usual quality combination of pixel-art and satisfying action synonymous with Ravenous Games.

Random Runners will accelerate onto the UK and US App Stores at midnight tonight. It will be priced 69p / 99c.
