01 / Find your rhythm

One tap. A whole new rhythm.

There is no finish line. Connect, swing, and leap through the grass to beat your best distance, one well-timed move at a time.

Connect & swing
  1. Tap a grass tip. Shoot a web at your target to attach a new line.
  2. Let the web carry you. Swing from the connection and build forward momentum.

Catch & keep moving
  1. Tap passing flies. Catch them for fresh energy and experience.
  2. Stay ahead. Choose your route, keep moving, and escape the pursuing mower.

Your next record comes from balancing release timing, swing rhythm, route choice, and the right moment to feed.

02 / Keep your energy up

A small snack.
A longer adventure.

Every swing uses energy. Let it run too low and movement becomes harder, leaving you more likely to fall or get caught.

Catch flies
Tap flies along your route to restore energy and earn XP. They usually appear in groups of around 3–7.
Recover naturally
Your spider restores energy over time. Plan your swings around the energy you have.
Improve your recovery
Upgrade Restoration Rate, or choose a spider or accessory with a special recovery benefit.

03 / The chase is on

Hear the mower?
Keep swinging.

The lawnmower starts closing in after your run begins, then gets faster as time passes.

When it draws near, your spider looks frightened or starts to tremble. Read the warning, find your next grass tip, and keep your escape moving.

Watch your footing

Stay off the ground.

Falling to the bottom of the scene ends the run.

Keep your lead

Outrun the mower.

Your run also ends if the pursuing lawnmower catches you.

A second chance

The King's advantage.

King Spider can revive once per run after a fall.

04 / Make every run count

A few more inches.
A new personal best.

Distance is measured in inches. Travel farther, catch flies, and collect rewards to gain XP. Each level brings attribute points for your next build.

05 / Build your own balance

A stronger swing.
A smarter build.

Spend your upgrade points across five attributes. Reset and reallocate them whenever you want to try a different approach.

Upgrade screen with Maximum Energy, Swing Power, Fly Energy Boost, Restoration Rate, Auto Target, and Reset All controls
Five attributes. Plenty of room to experiment.

Find your balance. A stronger swing helps you move faster, but can also drain more energy. Pair speed with recovery that suits your rhythm.

Swing Power
Increases swinging speed and forward drive, with potentially greater energy use.
Maximum Energy
Raises the amount of energy your spider can store.
Restoration Rate
Speeds up your spider's natural energy recovery.
Fly Energy Boost
