How to play
Run 3 is an arcade game in which you move and jump. You move and jump, and the game is described by its developer as the third instalment of the successful RUN series. The goal is to keep going without falling. Timing your jumps matters more than speed, because a mistimed jump ends the run. The game runs free in your browser, so you can start a run without installing anything.
Controls explained
Movement and jumping are the two actions. Use the move control to shift your runner and the jump control to leave the ground. Keep the two separate in your head: moving lines you up, jumping carries you over. Short taps are easier to correct than long holds. If you play on a keyboard, the move and jump keys are the ones to learn first. Learn the jump timing before you worry about distance.
Tips
- Watch the screen ahead rather than your runner, so you see an obstacle before you reach it.
- Jump late enough to clear the obstacle but early enough to land safely on the other side.
- Use small movement adjustments to line up before you jump.
- Keep a steady rhythm instead of rushing, since a mistimed jump is harder to recover from than a slow one.
- After a fall, restart and repeat the same section until the timing feels familiar.
