Roll, dodge and beat your record in Wheels Dash, an endless arcade runner starring a wheelchair racer. Short runs, fast reflexes and a rematch just one tap away. ONE ENDLESS JOURNEY Race through seven connected worlds: the city, the park, the beach at sunset, the stadium, the desert under the stars, the port and the snowy mountains. Reach the top and the route starts again. Every stretch brings more obstacles, more speed and downhill sections that demand control. SIMPLE CONTROLS, TIGHT TIMING - Tap the right half of the screen to push and build speed. - Swipe and hold on the left half to pop a wheelie over cracks, rocks and rough ground. - Swipe down and hold to duck under branches, cables and flags. - Hold the right half to brake on downhill sections, but watch the brake heat. BEAT YOURSELF, THEN EVERYONE ELSE Push your best distance further every run. With Game Center (optional) you can compare your record on daily and all-time leaderboards. Your score is only submitted if you choose to enable it. A HERO WHO NEVER STOPS Wheels Dash celebrates adaptive sports with a wheelchair hero, built so anyone can jump in: clear controls, a built-in control guide, in English and Spanish. FREE TO PLAY The free version shows non-personalized ads after some runs, never during gameplay. An optional one-time purchase removes ads. From Settings you can restore your purchase, review privacy options, report an ad and choose the language. Download Wheels Dash and see how far you can roll.
