So, Temple Run. Easily one of the most-anticipated Android games in the world right now. Android owners have been waiting patiently (though judging by the comments on our previous stories, not too patiently) for months. And according to the game’s official Facebook page, they’re going to have to wait a little longer. The deveoper posted that the game is taking longer than expected to complete, though it’s still coming along. The post says that it’ll give Facebook followers at least a week’s notice before the game is released – which means that if the notice came later today, Temple Run still wouldn’t be coming until March 3rd. At the absolute earliest.

For the uninitiated, Temple Run is an iOS game by developer Imangi Studios. In a nod to the original Indiana Jones, the player must control an adventurer fleeing from a temple, pursued by hoards of demonic monkeys. Various touch gestures allow you to manipulate your character, jumping, dodging, turning or ducking as necessary. It’s a bit like a 3D version of Bit Trip Runner. The developers announced back in November that the game was headed to Android, but as development draws to a close eager fans have been disappointed time and again with vague delays.

Imangi takes care to note that any game pretending to be Temple Run on the Android Market or elsewhere is a fake, until their full app is released. That’s not without precedent: like many popular iOS converts, copies and fakes have been appearing in the Market with depressing regularity.  The game is in the final Beta stages and should be wrapping up soon – but not before next Saturday. Keep it civil in the comments section, folks.

    • word they are fucking iddiots im about to march down there and show them a peice of my mind. Aree u with mhee on dhiss or not????///?/

  6. This is so stupid I hope when this fucking game comes out now one downloads it smh, the more they wait to release it the more people become uninterested, its going to be out by the time everyone is over it. Welp back to angry birds.

    • Angry birds is garbage. People wont become uninterested vecause there is still a huge market of people who dont have iOS devices, and cant play temple run regularly

      • Yeah Angry Birds is *ucking boring. I’m getting super uninterested in Temple Run already. Way to lose customers dummies.

  9. Fuck it , by the time they finish nobody will even care about that damn game . I’ll just play it on my iPod touch , regardless if they ever really release the game or not !

  12. I think they’re only doing this to have billions of downloads. The game probably been completed they just want to see us upset, angry etc. Oh well I don’t even care anymore..

  14. if they really cared for the fans and downloads , android would have gotten it first … im not interested as much in temple run anymore . they need to hurry up or else this will end up being a complete waste of everyones time .

  18. We’ve been waiting so effing long you pieces of crap F you and F temple run you people are pissingme the fu** off!!!!! Fu skalfbzlsvzlcbdj gahh!!!!! COME OUT WITH IT ALREADY

  19. Ok so i was a “little” rough on that last comment and i am not effing sorry for it. You guys are freaking pussies for not putting it on the market. If Apple really is paying you guys then screw you people. Are you really that Fu***** poor that you have to be apple’s bi*** and listen to everything they say just because they have money and you don’t you poor pieces of crap. Nobody likes days so come out with the dang thing already. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU ANDROID COMMUNITY!!!!!!!!!!!!

  29. yall put way to much hype on this game talkin about its coming out on android and it still hasnt come i dont even want it any more me or any other of my friends 

    i know damn well it shouldnt take as long as yall or making it

  30. Really? I Heard It Was Coming Feb 9.. Then The 12.. Then The 21st.. Then The 26 .. Then.. Anyday In February..! Make Up Your Minds.. And When You Do.. Let Us Know! Im Getting impatient And I Bareley Even Want The Game Anymore..

  33. I really want the game, but I’m sick if waiting. Thinking bout buying an iPod touch. Could use for music, and games. That’s why I bought this phone, but now I’m kinda regretting it if all the good things are on iOS. Shoulda got an iPhone.

  37. well what a buzz kill for the last days of february. i was so excited for the realease of this game on the android platform. if apple is paying them to hold it exclusive to the ios so be it. developers will sell there soul for a small bit of cash.shame… smh… i dont think that this game will get the users it would have if this game had been released in a reasonable time frame. i just hate the fact that alot of developers favor ios instead of bringing there app to both platforms with all the same content. ios developers dont care about android users so i stop supporting them, by not downloading or buy there app. the true android developers and one that dont discriminate  on both platforms is the ones that i will support.

  38. I love how everyone is bitching sooo much. Chill the fuck out, its a fucking videogame. I’m sure everyone will still download it. All your bitching and moaning isn’t going to accomplish jack shit.

  40. I got an app from imagi studios and its called temple run I press play and it say it will come out in two days and its for Android

  41. People need to realize that programming for iOS (iphone) is different than for Android. Also, with Android, you have different hardware configurations, so I’m sure they’re trying to make it work for as many Droids as possible. Different hardware configurations can make things more difficult for the programmers.

    I for one will be patient. No need to get testy, people. 

  42. Wow come on calm down it is not like you are going to die without the game and you guys don’t know how long it takes to make a game lke this even I don’t know, but I do know it takes a long time.

  43. Uggh I waited for this game to come out and all I can say forget about it because all this is doing is raising people hopes up and dropping them down hard and disappointing everyone

  44. Ok, I was reading all these comments. I agree that making this game needs a long time and you should respect Imangi for making it for android and be thankful. But you all are swearing about it and being angry. I don’t understand it. And after all, it’s just a game. No need to be so stressed. So I’ll be different and say – thank you for making this game available on androids, I’m happy about that and I can wait a few weeks. P.S. Sorry about my bad English

  47. yeah i think they’re just raising people’s hope.pls. be consisitent in posting the release date so that there will be no doubts if it will be release in android or not? Cause i downloaded the fan app in my samsung it appeared yeah that there is a count down but when that day comes? i am disappointed because i updated again and then still the same days/hours/time for the countdown..Be true with your anouncements 

  48. yeah i think they’re just raising people’s hope.pls. be consisitent in posting the release date so that there will be no doubts if it will be release in android or not? Cause i downloaded the fan app in my samsung it appeared yeah that there is a count down but when that day comes? i am disappointed because i updated again and then still the same days/hours/time for the countdown..Be true with your anouncements 

  51. Please make it sure that the game is wort waiting,i almost want to buy iphone just to play it but android phones are cool so please dont delay the game longer

  52. Deathkn3ll, the fan app you have downloaded has nothing to do with imangi (the makers of temple run). It is some 3rd party doing the countdown based on what they think.
    Its only a game people!

  53. i really dont see how temple run is any good or how people find it addictive.. personally, i dont care whether it comes to android but imagi have let down their fans on android

  55. They need to stop getting us excited for no reason…when they made it for the iphone they should’ve started making it for android too. This is rediculous we’ve been waiting way too long. HURRY

  57. WTF how is it taking so long to get on android put not long for iphone yalll are full of shit kiss my aSS
    #sincerly a very pissed of android user :/

  60. i will be patiently waiting till it comes,, JOKE!!! hey! come on, it’s been a month :3
    can’t wait to have temple rum on my android!

  63. mann i agree. i waited so excitedly and patiently for februaury now is DELAYED seriously. you guys must’ve have been doing test. just tell them whats going on and everyone can be satisfied

  68. Everybody cursing and gettimg mad for no reason. Its a game you people try developing a phone game lets see how fast you make it. I would rather wait for it and get it with no bugs then get it with constant updates

  69. Seriously?! People around me have already lost their interest in this game. No one is going to play even if the game releases now.

    Very sad :(:(

  70. Im not gonna play the damn game if it comes nonbody has interest in it stupid assholes saying they gonna release it 

  72. This is getting really aggervating. They keep postponing the day! By the time it comes out nobody will be interested in the game.

  73.  OK. honestly every single person that has commented is right. we’ve been waiting for MONTHS. by the time this game even comes out, there’s going to be a new top game for iPhones and no one will want temple run. its better to at least give us an accurate date rather than giving us a bunch of delayed dates. its pissing off a lot of people and its definitely not professional of you guys. yeah, we get it your trying your best but don’t get everyone’s hopes up for nothing. I downloaded the temple run countdown only to find it the next morning, delayed again.. i’ve been annoyed by all this and at this point, i don’t give two shits about temple run anymore and  could care less about waiting for it to come. You’ve let all your android owning customers down. t-_-t

    • cum on bring da game oun stop bsjng driod is a better proyduct that iphoyne any wat u can t download files o it .it is just a name apple i rather eat an apple than too buy apple phobes

  74. im really addicted to the game right now! because i have no itouch/ipad/iphone to play on, i’m pissed off that the game keeps getting postponed. its pretty much the best free game out there. i understand that they need to make the game perfect for android users, but i don’t see how they need to keep pushing back the day they plan to release it.

  76. So many people raging about ios vs android. They think apple is better becausr they have a few apps
    While this is true, apple is extremely limiting in what the phone can do i.e.you cannot download files straight from the internet onto your iphone like you can on a droid. Android is definiteky superior even without a few apps (which really arent even that great)

  85. Come on you guys stop all your cursing and just be patent I’ll rather get it late then have thw game and constant update and a bunch of bugs AND ANDROID RULES SO BACK OFF HATERS

  86. i saw the game on android but it let me play i put gun again and it says wait you have to wait 2 days 7 hours 23 min. and 15 sec for the levels i dont no wat it means by levels but im petty sure its it because it said run again

  90. I seriously don’t get why people would switch to iPhone (downgrade) just for a damn app.
    You can either wait few days (or weeks) or just waste 200 bucks for just an app. Think about it. Common freaking sense lol.

  93. ok…so…today is march the 4th…so were the heck is it?!?! this is makeing everybody mad! i could have just gotten an iphone and had temple run plus a bunch of other apps! ya shure i appreshiate my mom 4 gettinh me an awsome touchscreen phone with a slideout keybord…but y is it that there arnt any “good” apps in the market?
    im just saying:)

  95. Temple run i cant wait man im trippen I’ve been trippen for months now cant wait till it comes out ill be one of the first to get it have a droid razr max and i got the battery power for it man come on temple run president release it my wed. March 7th come on be counti g down everyday tick tock tick tock

    • apple products are not the most expensive products in the world! MOTHERFUCKER, if we have an android product it’s not because we can’t afford an apple product, it’s because apple sucks!, as simple as that. I bet you have a little fuckin ipod touch which is not more expensive than $400.. or let me guess mmm a Iphone 4 or 4s that its not more expensive than $400 too. OHH and i bet that you have an 8GB model of any of these. So dont fuckin open your mouth.

    • OHH and i forgot, Why are you on this site? if you have an apple product where you can play temple run on. ur stupid dude!
