Run Through Mustache-Themed Worlds in This New Movember Charity Game

The Movember Foundation, the charity that helps raise money and awareness for men's health, today launched a mobile game based on the "Movember" phenomenon. For those unaware, Movember is a campaign that runs every November and challenges men to grow a mustache for the duration of the month.

The game is called Run Mo Run! It's available today for iOS devices, with all proceeds from its microtransactions and advertisements going to men's health charities. An Android version is also on the way, but it doesn't appear to be available yet on Google Play. We'll add a link here when it is.

Run Mo Run! is of course inspired by men and mustaches. Players journey through "different mustache-themed worlds," grabbing coins and avoid obstacles. The goal is to defend your mustache and upgrade it. The microtransactions take the form of special power-ups and other customization options.

Since its formation in 2003, the Movember Foundation has raised more than $650 million. These funds have been delivered to more than 1,000 programs across the world to help provide services related to prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health, and physical activity.
