About game
Speed demons who crave high-stakes chase games will find their new obsession in CatchRunner. This fast-paced runner pits your reflexes against tricky terrain and elusive targets in a high-speed pursuit. You navigate through diverse environments while jumping over pits or diving under barriers to close the distance. Timing your movement to hit the interception zone decides if you snag the prize or fall behind. CatchRunner introduces a chaotic duel mode where you share a keyboard with a friend to play as the chaser or the runner. Customizing your roles and key layouts keeps the competition fresh every single time you boot up a match. Strategic use of shields and acceleration power-ups gives you the edge needed to outsmart opponents during every session. Grab your gear and start this browser-based race for free without any downloads required.
How to play
In single player mode, choose a lane, jump over pits, dive under barriers and hit the jump in the interception zone to catch up with the target. On the PC, a duel mode is available on one keyboard: one player controls the catch—up, the second controls the escape; the roles and key layouts can be configured in the menu. Use your shield and acceleration, collect power-ups, avoid collisions and bring the match to victory. Only single mode is available on mobile devices.
