App Store Free App of the Week: Octagon arcade-runner free for the first time in over a year ($2 value)

Apple has now selected Octagon as the App Store’s latest Free App of the Week. Described as a “Minimal Arcade Game with Maximum Challenge,” it is regularly listed at $2 and hasn’t gone free on the App Store since March of last year. It has a 4+ star rating from over 600 gamers.

Head below for more details and some gameplay footage:

Octagon is a minimal arcade game where you have to move fast or be left behind. As the floor moves beneath you, spin your world around to dodge speed bumps. Flip upside-down to avoid holes, surf on top of the Octagon—whatever you can do to survive the mad race through this trippy 8-sided tunnel. An energizing soundtrack by Sqeepo and psychedelic color bursts keep you in the zone on your race to the finish. But with each round over after just 60 seconds, only super-fast reflexes will beat this very challenging game.

Features:
– Classic, Endless and NEW Daily mode
– Unlimited number of randomly generated levels
– Dynamic procedural graphics with a minimalistic iOS7 look
– Original soundtrack by Sqeepo
– Universal App with iCloud syncing
– Pure challenge with no in-app purchases or cheats

iOS Universal: Octagon – A Minimal Arcade Game with Maximum Challenge: FREE (Reg. $2)
