The Endless Runner playbook

One thing to notice as you play

Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention. Refer to the controls when needed.

Your goal

Run as far as possible before a collision. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Start with a deliberate move.

Work through the instructions

  1. Start auto-running.
  2. Jump approaching obstacles.
  3. Land in time for the next jump.
  4. Restart after a collision.

Getting comfortable with the controls

Jump button, game-area touch or keyboard jump. Start / pause and New round are available. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.

See the idea in action

Jump slightly before reaching the obstacle. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Check the stated objective.

Keep this in mind

Jumping without timing can land directly on the next obstacle. Check the rule before repeating the action. Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart.
