When it comes to Cristiano Ronaldo, the major news story of the day centers around the Euro title that he and his native Portuguese squad have claimed only hours ago. In less important but still totally entertaining news, he has recently released a free mobile game called Cristiano Ronaldo: Kick'n'Run. Despite the strange name, the Subway Surfers-esque game is rather decent. If you've played Subway Surfers, you can definitely master this game pretty quickly. The game's plot involves Cristiano in Paris. After doing trick shots in the middle of the famous city for his adoring, CR7 sign-toting fans, Ronaldo races through the streets of Paris with a ball at his feet. He faces obstacles such as buses and a pesky defender with a level ending slide tackle. There are multiple modes of play, including endless, where you can keep on playing even if you loose, and 1v1, where you can battle other players. Does anyone want to play me?
