About Rooftop Run
Rooftop Run is an endless side-scrolling runner set on city rooftops at sunset. Your courier runs on their own — tap to leap the gaps between buildings and hop over air-conditioners and crates, or swipe down to slide under hanging signs, banners and drones. The pace keeps rising, so every run is a chase for a new best score.
Sprint across sunset city rooftops as a hooded courier — tap to leap the gaps, swipe down to slide under hanging signs and see how far you can run before the city speeds past you.

💡 Tips & tricks
- Jump right at the edge of a roof: a full, held jump covers the widest gaps, and the coin arcs show the ideal path.
- Ground things like boxes and chimneys need a jump; anything hanging with down-chevrons and hazard stripes needs a slide.
- Save your double jump for when a jump comes up short — you only get one per jump.
- A shield bubble blocks one obstacle hit, but it cannot save you from falling between buildings.

Rooftop Run FAQ
How is the score counted?
You get one point per metre run, plus 10 per coin and 25 for each close call — barely clearing an obstacle or landing right at the edge of a roof.
Is every gap really jumpable?
Yes. Gaps are sized from the jump physics at your current speed with a safety margin, and obstacles are never placed at a landing spot or right before an edge.
Can I continue after a fall?
Once per run you can watch an optional ad to respawn on the next rooftop with a clear runway and keep running.
