Game guide

How to run with the gods.

Everything the game teaches you in the first hour, and a few things it doesn't.

Controls

Hold and glideKeep your finger on the screen and slide it left or right to change lanes. Flick up to jump, flick down to roll, and tap with a second finger to strike.
Swipe left / rightChange lane. You can swipe mid-air.
Swipe upJump. Some heroes can tap jump again mid-air for a double jump.
Swipe downSlide under barriers and boss claws — and drop faster out of a jump. A short swipe down always rolls.
TapStrike. Breaks gates and hits bosses when they're open.
Ability buttonBottom-left. Your hero's signature power, on a cooldown.
HeartsYour HP for the run. Hit something and you lose one; at zero you fall — unless you revive.
You can revive with coins (the price rises each time in a run), with a bonus video, or with a diamond life — collect 10 diamonds in a run to earn one.

Boss fights

A boss has 3 HP. It blocks the whole path and attacks lane by lane — slide under the low sweeps, jump the shockwaves, and strike when it's exposed. Defeat it for keys, coins and a big score bonus. In Random mode, every defeated boss sends you to a new world. All four worlds are open from the start, and Endless runs bring the other worlds' bosses too.

Power-ups

ShieldAbsorbs one hit.
MagnetPulls coins from every lane.
2× CoinsEvery coin counts double while it lasts.
InvincibleNothing can hurt you. Run through everything.

Coin FrenzyInvincible + magnet + 2× at once while gold rains down.
VertigoThe whole screen flips. Coins are worth 3× — if you survive.
Midas TouchEverything you touch turns to gold. Briefly.
Time SlowEverything slows down for a few seconds. Easier dodging.
Winged HelmetFound on the road. 10 seconds of higher jumps.
Hermes RampRun up it and glide over a trail of coins.

Power-up upgrades

In Shop > Power-ups, four power-ups have 5 levels. Each level makes the pickup last longer.

Power-upLevel 1Level 5
Magnet8 s16 s
Shield8 s16 s
Invincible6 s12 s
Time Slow5 s10 s

Levels 2 to 5 cost 1,000, 3,000, 10,000 and 30,000 coins (VIP pays half). They're bought with coins only. The Daily Run always uses level 1, so everyone races on the same terms.

Pre-run boosts

Equip Head Start, Coin Boost or an Extra Life from your Loadout before a run. Earn them from quests, the season pass and the Daily Spin.

Modes

Endless

Pick a world and run as far as you can. Score, distance, coins — and the bracket your best run puts you in.

Random Endless

Start anywhere; every boss you beat sends you to the next world.

Objective runs with stars to earn. Clear one to unlock the next.

Shop & VIP

Everything in the shop can be earned by playing. If you'd rather skip ahead: coin packs (from the 3,000-coin Pouch to the 600,000-coin Hoard of Croesus, six times what they used to give at the same prices), fixed-content bundles, a one-time Hero Starter Pack, and the season's premium track.

Olympus VIP (monthly, yearly, or Lifetime): no ads, 50% off every coin price, 2× run coins, 150 daily coins, an extra revive every run and 2× Trials XP. Subscriptions renew until cancelled; manage them in your Apple ID settings.

Tips from the mountain

Slide is faster than jump. When in doubt, go under.
Save your signature power for the boss — Shield Bash or Divine Shield turns a claw sweep into free hits.
Vertigo is worth it. 3× coins for eight seconds is the biggest payday in the game; switch lanes with the screen, not against it.
Never let the feather pass. Sky Flight is both safety and money.
The Mage's Time Warp is a boss-fight cheat code: 4 seconds at 40% speed to line up strikes.
Coin revive prices climb each time you use one in a run — take the free video revive first.
Play the Daily Tribute first every day; the streak milestones are where the keys are.
A new high score shows your bracket and the score for the next one. That number is the real game.
