About Nightmare Runner

It is a running game where stopping is never an option, so every obstacle has to be cleared on the move.

The creatures on your heels give the whole thing a horror feel. Power-ups show up along the way and give you an edge, which matters more and more as the speed climbs.

Key features

  • A nonstop arcade chase with haunting creatures behind you.
  • You jump over some obstacles and slide under others.
  • The speed keeps rising the longer you run.
  • Power-ups give you a boost during the chase.

Tips & tricks

  • Look at each obstacle early and decide between a jump and a slide before you reach it.
  • Grab every power-up you can, because the edge it gives helps most once the pace picks up.
  • Keep your fingers resting on the jump and slide keys, since fast reactions count for more than anything else in this skill game.

Frequently asked questions

What are you running from?
Haunting creatures chase you the whole time, which makes it an action game as much as a runner.
Does the game get harder as you go?
Yes. The speed keeps going up, so you have less time to react to each obstacle.
What do power-ups do?
They boost your performance and give you an edge while you stay ahead of the creatures.
