## What is Blinky Run?

Blinky Run is an endless runner you can play without touching the screen. Race across the rooftops of a neon synthwave city and jump with a blink, by opening your mouth… or with a simple tap.

THREE WAYS TO PLAY
• Fingers: tap anywhere to jump. Works on every device, no camera needed.
• Eyes: blink on purpose, a little longer than usual, to jump.
• Mouth: open your mouth to jump.
• The same course rules in every mode: an easy start, then a real crescendo.

PLAY HANDS-FREE
• Hands-free mode: pick a mode and start a run with your eyes or mouth, without touching the screen.
• 5-second practice calibration: blink (or open your mouth) 3 times to make Blinky jump, and the detection adapts to you. Redo it anytime in Settings.

YOUR CAMERA STAYS PRIVATE
Face detection runs entirely on your device. Camera images never leave it: they are analyzed in real time, never saved and never sent.

A NEW CHALLENGE EVERY DAY
• Daily challenge: a new course every day, the same for everyone.
• Reach the daily goal, marked by a finish line on the course, to grow your streak.
• Streak rewards: keep it going for 3, 7 and 14 days to unlock new colors.
• See where you stand on today's leaderboard in Game Center.

MAKE IT YOURS
• Unlock runner colors and city lights with your total distance and your daily streaks.
• Find exclusive styles in the shop.

SHOP
• Free to play, with ads.
• One-time purchases: No ads, Color pack (every color right away, plus exclusive styles) or Complete pack (both).

AND ALSO
• Game Center leaderboards for each mode, and achievements.
• Sounds and haptic feedback.
