By SRTeam Can you even believe the fact that Temple Run was a game that was released back in 2011? A lot of people don’t know this but at first, you’d have to pay about $0.99 just to download this game, but then the developers switched it to a freemium game, which was free to download. And for those who have never played it, well, it is an endless running game where you explore the game by running away from crazy monkey creatures after grabbing a relic, and they just chase after you the entire game. You run endlessly, dogging whatever challenges come your way, and the more you run, the more you score. Plain and simple! And that is precisely the thing that makes a lot of people wonder, like, what is the highest ever score in Temple Run achieved by some player out there? If you are intrigued about that too, then just keep on reading. Here we go.
How High Scores Got Started?
The first ever high score story regarding Temple Run comes all the way from 2013 when a player of this game scored so high that he ended up being on the Guinness World Records Challengers website. Well, at that time, it was a big thing to score thousands of points, and how much did this player score? See, the player we’re talking about goes by the name “Thymufasa707” and back in 2013, he ended up scoring a whopping 67,702,984 points.
You may think that it is not that high of a score because a lot of people out there are claiming that they have scored even higher, right? Well, the thing is, it is the most official score we know so far, so that had to be the highest. Though, we’ll come to some Temple Run high score claims later down on this post.
Who’s Got the Crown? The Latest High Score Scoop
Well, if we go by the official data and facts out there, then sure enough, it is the “Thymufasa707” who still holds the crown or the top spot for the highest ever Temple Run score. Though, as we already told you, there are so many other people claiming to hit big scores in this game. Let’s talk about that. For example, we found that on a website called the Recordsetter.com, a player claimed to have hit or achieved a score as high as 136,358,478 points. That’s literally more than double the original or official highest score we know. So, it seems like this claim is more than likely to be just a false one. We don’t have any way to confirm it, but if we speculate, it is not the highest true score achieved by a player of the Temple Run game.
Just like that, on Reddit, we found out that there is some user who’s claiming to have hit 100 million-point runs in this game. So? Well, the thing is, the player didn’t show any proof, like no screenshots, no video proof, or anything like that. It is just pure verbal claim, and it is kinda hard to trust someone’s words online, you know?
