The most daring, dangerous, heart-stopping intergalactic race in the universe is the Sun Run, a lap of the entire solar system and around the sun. Gamma and Olli are the youngest Sun Runners there ever was and they are ready to race.
Just days before the big race, Olli and Gamma crash land on Mercury – they’ve got to get out of this intergalactic mess and get back to the asteroid belt in time for the Sun Run.
Plunge headfirst into an immersive space adventure. With a pair of headphones and a mobile device, you become Olli and Gamma, hurtling across the farthest reaches of the galaxy in your own living room. Sun Runners infuses imaginative, physical play with a cinematic score to create a thrilling action-packed experience. Audioplay is technology without the screens.
Suitable for ages 8-12 years
