About This Game

A one-button endless reflex game: tap to change direction and keep a ball/runner on a narrow zigzag path while avoiding falling off. The presentation is bright and minimalist with short repeatable runs; the free version uses frequent ads and offers in‑app purchases (remove ads, extra lives) and leaderboards/achievements.
