This is the premise of the online flash and now iPhone game Canabalt.

You're a sharply dressed protagonist who automatically runs across rooftops of buildings, constructions cranes and through other buildings, avoiding being turned into a fine mist and falling to your death. You're only job is to control when he jumps over these obstacles.

The game is simple and remarkably addicting, challenging the player to go for the longest distance possible. A random generated environment prevents the game from getting stale and Twitter integration allows you to show off your high scores to the world. The iPhone app is 2.99 and normally I would hesitate to pay this much for a game of this type, but the quality of the game and the thought of supporting the developers to create more quality titles made the purchase easier.
