## What is Wiener Run?

Big Squirrel stole the neighborhood’s dog toys, and Duke the dachshund wants them back.

Run, jump, glide on your ears, dash and crawl through 17 worlds made of paper, felt and cardboard: from the front lawn to the Moon, then around the world in a food truck, from a Texas mine to the hot-air balloons of Cappadocia.

Every world ends with a boss that fights its own way. Watch for the wind-up, learn the opening, and try again from the checkpoint outside.

Play it your way:
• Easy, Normal or Hard, and change your mind whenever you like.
• Touch controls built for one thumb per button on iPhone and iPad, a keyboard, or a game controller.
• Hidden souvenirs off the main path, and a best time for every stop.
• Four dachshunds to play as: Duke, Josie, Otis and Dahlia.

No ads, no accounts and no tracking. The game plays offline, and your progress follows you to your other devices through iCloud.

HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS
An add-on with three worlds. In Harvest Home, an old turkey is sure Duke has come to take him to dinner. On Christmas Eve, the toys come alive at midnight. In Ring In the New Year, Duke chases his squeaky toy down a parade of flower floats. Plus a Christmas and a New Year’s sweater for each dog.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.2.0 — 2026-11-13

Lives. On Normal and Hard, Duke now has lives: a fall costs one, a hidden toy earns one, and every level you clear tops them back up. Run out and a short cutscene plays, then the level starts over. Easy plays as before.

Also new:
• Medium is now called Normal.
• Checkpoint flags are spaced more evenly.
• Lighter on your phone: far less drawing work while you play, and none while paused.
• The night levels run much lighter too.
• Controller rumble, with Off, Light and Full in the pause menu.
• Smooth edges: a setting under Advanced in the pause menu to turn off for a slower device.
• Fixed the touch pad sometimes staying held after you lift your thumb.

### 1.1.1 — 2026-11-12

Josie’s New Year’s sweater now has a rose. The float barn in Roll Out has windows on the dawn and more of its workshop. Signs stay easy to read on a phone when the camera pulls back, and the pause menu names the dog you’re playing.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-11-11

Ring In the New Year, a third holiday world: fireworks at midnight, a parade of flower floats to ride, and the Grand Marshal, a peacock who won’t share his float. It’s part of Home for the Holidays, and free if you already own it. Plus a New Year’s sweater for each dog.

### 1.0.0 — 2026-11-09

No release notes.
