## What is OtterSlide?

Swim, dodge and race a rival otter down a wild 3D river.

OtterSlide is a cozy 3D endless river runner starring a cute otter who swims on its back. Glide through gorges, marshes and icy valleys: jump, dive and shove your way past your rival. Behind every bend wait new hurdles, forks and surprises.

• Easy swipe controls: steer left and right, swipe up to jump, swipe down to dive. Pause any time.
• Race your rival: overtake, shove each other aside, and watch a shoved rival crash into an obstacle. Small bumps cost you ground; fall too far behind and the run is over.
• Jump hurdles, dive under arches and dodge rocks, logs, reeds, beavers and whitewater rapids. Took a hit? Watch an ad to keep swimming once.
• Choose your route at forks: hop over land or dive deep. Three-way forks hide a wild chute in the middle.
• Expect surprises: falling rocks (a red mark shows where they land), a swooping sea eagle and toppling trees.
• Six habitats: gorge, marsh, canyon, ice valley, mangroves and basalt gorge.
• Collect flowers and build flow with close calls and flips. Flowers unlock hats, scarves and stones for your otter, plus rare items for the long haul. There's also a daily crate, ranks and goals.
• Climb the 3D leaderboard, add friends, or play with an optional guest account. The original 2D river is still here as Classic mode.

Hop in and see how far your otter can swim.
