PoyRush

You are a number. Everything in the arena wants to make you smaller. Grow. PoyRush is a fast, neon arena-survival game about one simple idea: your number is everything. It's your score, your size, and your health all at once. Sweep up glowing orbs to grow, blast enemies before they shrink you, and push deeper into ever-more-dangerous worlds. GROW OR DIE Every orb you collect makes your number climb. Every hit knocks it down. Let it hit zero and the run is over — so weave through hazards, bait enemies, and keep the number rising. FOUR CLASSES, FOUR PLAYSTYLES Pick the Speed Runner, the Tank, the Glass Cannon, or the Summoner — each plays completely differently, with its own strengths, weaknesses, and signature look. A DEEP ARSENAL Stack weapons as you level up — homing shots, orbiting blades, piercing beams and more — and choose what to keep when your slots fill. THE DAILY CHALLENGE A single seeded world generated fresh each day and shared by everyone on Earth: identical rooms, identical boss, identical run. No excuses — just you versus the world on a level playing field. Post your best before midnight UTC. PERMANENT PROGRESSION Earn Primes every run and spend them on a branching skill tree that makes your next attempt stronger — and on cosmetic trails that show off how far you've come. CLIMB THE LEADERBOARDS Sign in to sync your scores across devices and compete on the All-time and Daily global leaderboards. Then share your best run with one tap. BUILT TO FEEL GREAT Full-screen on every iPhone and iPad, a punchy synth soundtrack, reactive sound design, and a high-contrast mode for accessibility. Free to play. How high can your number go?
