Swipe. Dodge. Flex. Brainrot Arena is a fast endless runner from a sunny 3D city all the way to space. RUN THE CITY Three lanes of cars, taxis, vans and buses, oncoming and your way. Swipe left and right to change lanes, swipe up to jump, swipe down to belly-slide under bars and signs. Swipe down in mid-air for a belly-flop dive. Hit something head-on and you're wiped out. ONE GIANT LAP The street is only the ground floor. Launch onto the roofs and hop from roof to roof, ride the funicular up to a castle under siege, get flung by a trebuchet onto floating sky islands, then catch a UFO into space. When it blows, skydive all the way back down through crown rings and slam onto a bus roof for the next lap: faster, busier and a new time of day. Up high, watch your step: miss a jump and it's a SPLAT. CHAIN IT. HIT RUSH x5 Real dodges, roof hops, big air and crown gates build your combo. Reach x5 and RUSH kicks in: you speed up, nothing trips you, and the cars and buses in your way go flying. Wreck a few in a row for a PILE-UP. POWER-UPS - AURA: a wrecking-ball glow that knocks traffic aside and shrugs off a bump - RIZZ: pulls every crown nearby straight to you - BALLOONS: floaty high jumps SKINS AND FITS Grab crowns on the run and spend them on outfits, or play as a whole new character with a legendary skin. A new drop lands in the shop every Friday. Try anything on in 3D before you buy. DAILY STREAK Come back every day for a crown gift that grows all week, up to 1,500 on day 7. TRENDS Three new challenges every day, from lily-pad hop streaks to wrecking cars in RUSH. Clear them for bonus crowns; clear all three for a free fit (or more crowns once you own every common fit). TOP THE RANKS Climb the global leaderboard: all time, this week and today. Every run shows the fit it was run in, and the top three stand on the podium. Go by your generated @handle or make your own name. Game Center is optional and adds your friends board. RUN IT BACK Crashed on a great run? Keep it going with crowns, or take one free revive per run by watching a short video. Videos only play when you choose one: a revive, DOUBLE IT for twice a run's crowns, or a HEAD START. ALSO - Plays offline - Share a card of your best run - Haptics, sound and music settings - Crown packs and No Ads available as in-app purchases Your coins from earlier versions carry over as crowns.
