More about this game
Panda Dash is a three-lane runner where you guide a panda down an endless bamboo trail. Your primary goal is to survive and maximize your score by covering distance and grabbing bamboo, which adds 10 points each. As the seconds tick by, your running speed steadily increases, giving you less time to react to incoming logs and gates. A run ends immediately if you crash into an obstacle without jumping or sliding, but you can sometimes watch an ad to revive.
Tips
- Since the running speed increases over time, keep your eyes focused on the top of the screen to spot logs and gates as early as possible.
- Bamboo gives you 10 extra points, but never risk crashing into a gate just to grab it. Prioritize staying in a safe, clear lane.
- If you realize you cannot jump or slide in time, quickly switch to an empty adjacent lane to bypass the obstacle entirely and stay alive.
Questions
How is my total score calculated?
Your final score combines the total distance you traveled in meters with the bamboo you collected. Every meter counts as one point, and each piece of bamboo adds exactly 10 points to your total.
What happens if I hit a log or gate?
Hitting any obstacle ends your run instantly. However, on the result screen, you might see an option to watch an ad to revive your panda and continue the exact same run.
Does the game get faster?
Yes, your forward running speed gradually accelerates the longer you stay alive on the trail. This acceleration caps out eventually, but it makes dodging and lane switching much harder.
