Running with Rifles is a cartoonish top-down shooter with cover shooter elements.

I pretty much didn't like it straight off the bat. I just kept dying. By the time I logged out, I was staying alive longer, but not much.

I've got other top-down shooters I'd prefer to play, and other frenetic first-person or third-person cover shooters I'd prefer to play.

Running with Rifles is:

3: OK
