Swipe left, swipe right, jump, roll. Something enormous is running behind you and it is not slowing down. Brainrot Dash is a three-lane endless runner starring the Italian brainrot meme cast. Trains, buses, barriers and traffic come at you fast. Every hit you take lets the chaser close the gap, and after eight hits he catches you and you get a front-row seat to your own demise. Eight mistakes. That's the whole run. FOUR WORLDS ON A LOOP Sprint out of the city, cross the Golden Gate Bridge, tear through Ancient Rome, then land in Japan. The zones cycle as long as you survive, so the farther you get, the more you see. NINE RUNNERS TO UNLOCK Cappuccina, Brr Brr Patapir, Espressona Signora, Udin Din Dun, Doctor Pigeon, Matcha Chocolat, Ace of Spades, Baby and JPop Dragon Slayer. Each one has their own look on the track. Pick your fighter. POWER-UPS THAT ACTUALLY CHANGE THE RUN Speed Boost to blow past a bad patch. Bombardino Crocodilo to clear what's in front of you. Magnet to hoover up every token in the lane. Bat Shield to eat one hit for free. Upgrade your belt and you carry more of them into every run. TWO CURRENCIES, ONE SHOP Stack Tung Tokens on the track. Rubies are the rare ones. Spend both on characters, power-up unlocks, belt upgrades and new music. 24 ORIGINAL SONGS The whole soundtrack was written for this game. Build your own playlist and run to it, or unlock more tracks in the shop. LEADERBOARDS Two Game Center boards: highest score, and richest player by total tokens.
