  • Enemies

The fact that you can take down enemies in John Mad Run is of the most unusual features of the game. To take them out, tap the right side of the screen to fire or swipe to use your sword, which is the best way to deal with enemies in short range.

The enemies of the game are quite varied. There some some regular enemies that will simply shoot at you as soon as they see you but there are also some more annoying ones that come with a shield. These enemies will appear after an icon appears on the screen. To avoid the enemies with the shield, make sure to move away from them at the very last moment.

  • Restoring Health

There’s no real indication on screen for how much health your character has, with the exception of how your character actually looks. The more bloodied he is, the worse his health his. Luckily there’s a way to slightly restore health by picking hearts during runs. Make sure to avoid enemies and traps when going after them, you may end up dying before evevn reaching them.

  • Extra Weapons

You can unlock some more effective weapons by spending some coins. You can get the laser for 3000 coins and the Shashka sword for 1000. You can also upgrade the shotgun with 1000 coins.

An easier and cheaper way to unlock them is by simply liking Happymagenta on Facebook and linking the account to the game. It’s actually the best way to unlock the new weapons, since you will be able to save quite a few coins in the process.
