About Robo Run

Robo Run is an endless runner. A robot runs automatically along a track, and you decide when to jump and when to duck. Rocks, pillars and spikes stand in the way, and flying drones appear once your score is high enough. The longer you survive, the faster the robot runs. Tap or hold to control the height of the jump and try to beat your best distance. Play Robo Run free online in your browser — no download or sign-up needed.

How to Play Robo Run

Objective

Run as far as you can without hitting an obstacle.

Starting a game

Press the jump control to begin.

Rules

  • Your score grows with the distance covered.
  • Obstacles on the ground (rocks, pillars, spikes) must be jumped over.
  • After a score of 150, flying drones appear at head height; duck under them.
  • The distance between obstacles always leaves enough room to land and jump again.
  • Speed increases continuously up to a maximum.

Controls

  • Space, ↑ or W: jump (hold for a higher jump)
  • ↓ or S: duck
  • Touch: tap to jump, hold the lower part of the screen to duck

Winning and losing

A collision ends the run. Press jump again to restart.

Tips and Strategies

  • Release the jump button early for a short hop over small obstacles.
  • Start your jump a little earlier at higher speeds.
  • Do not duck when a drone is far away; wait until it is close.
  • Stay relaxed and keep a steady rhythm of jumps.
  • Watch the whole obstacle, not only its first edge.
