Sonic runners is no longer available to play I downloaded the game and after agree with terms it says " sonic runners is no longer available to play" and it sticks there...is this a joke? If it's not available to play for any reason why I can download and install it in first place... I love Sega and its games but dunno why they always deleting their good games from Google play... This is sad...
