More about this game
Your goal is to run as far as possible without getting caught by the police. The runner automatically sprints across rooftops, and you must time your jumps and slides to dodge barriers, vents, and pipes. Collecting markers increases your flow multiplier and adds to your distance score. The run speed gradually increases over time, making obstacles harder to avoid. Taking three hits from obstacles or falling off a building ends the run.
Tips
- You can hold the jump input slightly early; the game has a 140ms jump buffer to help you land and immediately leap again.
- Sliding brings you down quickly if you are in the air, which is useful for dodging pipes right after a jump.
- Prioritize collecting markers, as they not only boost your score multiplier but also add 4 meters directly to your distance.
Questions
How do I get a higher score?
Your score is based on distance traveled and your flow multiplier. Collect markers to increase your flow up to a maximum of 9x.
What happens when I hit an obstacle?
Hitting an obstacle reduces your health by one and resets your flow multiplier back to 1. You have a brief invulnerability period after a hit.
Can I recover health during a run?
No, you start with 3 health points and there is no way to heal. Once you lose all three, the police catch you and the run ends.
