About Stack Guys
It plays as an endless-style runner where the path keeps coming at you.
Every run begins with just one ball under you. Each extra ball you collect makes the stack taller and faster, and the taller it gets, the better your score.

The paths twist and narrow, and spiked obstacles sit right in your way. Running into spikes costs you balls from the stack, so a big lead can shrink quickly if you get careless.
Your run lasts as long as you have at least one ball left. Lose the last one and the run is over, so the size of your stack works as both your score and your safety margin.
Quick summary
- You start each run rolling on a single ball.
- Steering into extra balls stacks them up and makes you taller and faster.
- Spikes along the twisting path knock balls off your stack.
- When your last ball is gone, the run ends and your stack height decides how well you did.
Key features
- A runner built around stacking balls beneath your character.
- Your stack gives you both extra height and extra speed.
- Tricky paths are lined with spiked obstacles.
- Simple swipe steering is the only control you need.
- The tallest stack earns the highest score.
Tips & tricks
- Aim for spots where balls sit in tight groups, since one pass through a cluster adds several at once.
- Skip a lone ball if grabbing it means cutting close to a spike.
- Make small swipes on narrow sections so you do not overshoot into a hazard.
- Treat a tall stack as a cushion, but rebuild it fast after a hit before the next spike comes along.
