About RUNNING WITH RIFLES

✦ AI summary

Join the ranks as a common soldier in an open-world tactical shooter where you forge your own path through dynamic campaigns filled with hundreds of locations, vehicles, and emergent AI that adapts to your tactics. Command squads, call in reinforcements, sabotage enemy operations, and tackle side objectives your way—whether you go loud with tanks and artillery or silent as a lone wolf—all backed by deep multiplayer options and full mod support.

RUNNING WITH RIFLES is a top-down tactical shooter with open-world RPG elements.

In RWR, you join the ranks of an army as a common soldier, just like the thousands around you.

The open world approach lets you define your own path and story in the campaign. Push back the enemy with your comrades or go deep behind enemy lines to sabotage their efforts and loot valuable items.

As you gain experience, you are promoted with higher command over soldiers and equipment. Call in artillery fire missions or paratrooper reinforcements when the situation gets tight! Use your squad to man armed boats, tanks and APC's, or, become the expert lone wolf you always aspired to be - it's up to you!

What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Players praise Runaway: The Dream of the Turtle as a solid tactical shooter with enjoyable single-player and cooperative gameplay, bolstered by the workshop mods (particularly the Warhammer 40K mod) that add replayability and variety. However, multiplayer servers are a major pain point, with complaints about admin abuse, inconsistent rule enforcement, poor AI teammates that fail to defend positions, and exploitative farming tactics that frustrate progression. The game is best enjoyed solo or with friends rather than on public servers.
