Whether you're big or small, at home or on the road, Long Neck Run is the perfect obstacle racing game to have fun and show your reflexes. Reach peaks in just a few minutes. Will you be able to avoid the traps you meet on the way? The further you go, the taller you get, and the harder the levels become. It's up to you to be as nimble as possible to discover the secrets we have in store for you. Playing is easy, just control your character with your finger. Get as many rings as you can from your colors to make your neck grow, reach more bonuses and unlock many wonders. But beware! Each ring of the wrong color will make you lose part of your neck and you might not make it through the pitfalls like the zip lines or the swimming pools. Keep your head up. As you play, win keys and gemstones in order to open and unlock new skins. Become a rabbit, a ninja, or a king by spending your gems in the shop. Remember, the longer your neck, the higher the winnings. Our skins can't be bought with money and can only be obtained by playing. Our game only exists thanks to advertisements. Ads will be present throughout the game, and some will allow you to increase your rewards! However, you can support us by buying our paid version (without advertisements) directly from the game. That comes with a lot of gems to unlock more content.
