Is this your kind of game?

For a city runner with short campaign stages and an endless challenge.

Controls at a glance

Desktop Left/Right changes lane, Up jumps and Down slides or quick-drops. Touchscreens use matching left/right/up/down swipes. Phones favor portrait; P/Esc pauses on desktop.

Match the action to the opening

Look at the empty space an obstacle leaves. A low barrier calls for a different action than an overhead obstruction. Learn jump and slide timing on clear approaches before chaining them into late lane changes.

Read the landing lane as well as the obstacle. A successful jump into a blocked exit is not a safe route. When a sequence is busy, choose the action that leaves you the clearest following move rather than the most coins.

A pickup should not choose the whole route

Magnet attraction pulls nearby coins, including coins across lanes, but does not collect power-ups for you. With a magnet active, you can keep a safer lane instead of trying to follow every coin trail.

Campaign and endless play have different goals. In a stage, learn the route and improve its result. In endless mode, speed and concentration matter for longer, so favour repeatable reactions over narrow last-second saves.

Reliable swipes

  • Make a clear directional swipe instead of a diagonal gesture that could mean two actions.
  • Plan the next lane before finishing the current jump.
  • After a mistake, practise the gesture timing rather than assuming you need to swipe harder.

Progress & backups

Local progress and run resume are supported, with encrypted save backup export/import. Keep your backup before clearing browser storage or moving to another device.
