Desert Dash
Run across the desert, jumping cacti and ducking under low-flying birds. The pace climbs the further you go in this endless runner.
How to play
- Your runner moves on its own. Tap the screen or press Space or the Up arrow to jump over a cactus.
- Birds appear once you have run a while. Hold the Duck button or the Down arrow to slip under them.
- Holding Down while in the air makes you fall faster, which helps you land before the next obstacle.
- One hit ends the run. Your score grows with the distance you cover and the best run is saved.
Tips and strategy
- Jump a little later than feels natural. A late jump still clears the cactus and lands sooner.
- Double cacti are wider, so start those jumps earlier.
- Keep one hand ready on Duck once your score passes forty, because birds can follow right after a cactus.
- The game speeds up steadily, so stay relaxed and keep your timing rhythmic.
FAQ
- Can I play on a phone?

- When do the birds start?
- After a score of forty, so the first stretch is cacti only.
- Does the game ever stop speeding up?
