A city of rooftops
Elevated roads run clean over the rooftops, the sky is wide open, and the sun is low. Then the machines start coming the other way. The road ahead is yours to clear, and your crew is out there waiting to be rescued.
One thumb. Three lanes.
One thumb is all it takes. Your weapon fires itself, so all of your attention goes on reading the road.
Jump and slide
Swipe up to jump cargo, swipe down to slide under gantries. The road tells you which one is coming.
Your weapon fires itself
The courier shoots on its own, straight down its lane. Choosing the lane is the aiming.
Charge Overdrive
Overdrive charges as you run. Unleash it the moment the road gets mean.
A road that fights back
Every machine that slips past you counts as an escape, and the tenth escape ends the run. You are not running away from anything, you are holding a line.
Bombers, spotters and guardians
Bombers blast you if they slip past, spotters shell whichever lane you are in, and guardians shield the machines around them. Pick your target.
Patrols and armour
Patrols weave between lanes and armoured units shoot back. Heavy machines cost double if they escape. Late in a run, full-width barriers leave no lane to hide in: jump or slide.
Bosses and rescues
Beat rotating bosses to free Echo, Aegis and Zip. But be quick, or the boss escapes with your crewmate.
Three weapon families
Pick the one that suits how you read a lane, then take it further with upgrades and permanent specialisations.
Pulse
Balanced energy bolts, easy to aim and forgiving. The one to learn the road with.
Repeater
Rapid twin fire. Fills a lane with shots and clears clusters before they close on you.
Lance
Heavy rail shots that pierce armour. Slower, but nothing armoured survives a clean line.
Pick-ups change what a lane is worth:
Jetpack: fly over every danger and choose your landing lane
Magnets: nearby coins come to you
Overdrive: charge it and release it at the right moment
Build your own robot
Your courier is built, not chosen. Every part is earned with coins from the road, and nothing you bolt on changes the difficulty.
- Mix and match heads, torsos, arms, legs, caps and backpacks.
- Pick from 30 partners.
- Choose from four paint coats.
- Save your favourite looks as named kits.
- Three weapon families with upgrades and permanent specialisations.
Small crew. Big rescues.
Beat a boss and a stranded crewmate joins you, bringing a power you keep.
- Echo: every sixth shot pierces and hits 25% harder.
- Aegis: blocks one hit, then recharges.
- Zip: recalls three escapes and gives you a burst of rapid fire.
Take one buddy into a run and pair its power with your weapon. Rescue the same buddy three times and it earns its mint trim.
Prove it, then come back
District grades
Every district is graded S to C, and a clean one makes your next coins pay double.
Overclock
Overclock a run with no blue drops, a shorter fuse, rush-hour traffic or a glass core, for up to twice the coins.
A new Daily Run
Every day brings a new road, the same for everyone, with a bonus for reaching district 3.
Free to play. Fair to play.
Coins come from the road, not your wallet, and every upgrade is earnable. Nothing on sale changes enemy health, difficulty or your skill.
An endless mode
An optional purchase that adds a mode without bosses, for players who just want the road.
A coin doubler
A one-time purchase that permanently doubles the coins you earn.
Coin packs
A top-up for when you want that part now. Everything it buys can also just be earned.
