Dino Run — a free online arcade game on TotType

Dino Run is an endless desert runner in the spirit of the browser's famous offline dinosaur. Your dino runs on its own; you jump over the cacti and, once you are far enough in, duck under low-flying birds. The ground speeds up steadily the further you go, day turns to night every so often, and a single mistake ends the run — which is exactly why the next one starts with one tap. Score is distance in metres, so a personal best is a number worth chasing. It's free in any browser with no download — the arcade just needs a free parent account with a verified email.

How to play Dino Run

Tap, click, or press Space / ↑ to jump over cacti. Hold ↓ (or the Duck button) to slide under the low birds. The ground speeds up the further you run; score is distance in metres.

Tips & tricks

  • Jump late rather than early: the dino clears a cactus easily, but landing on the next one is how most runs end.
  • Birds fly at two heights — low ones need a duck, high ones just need you to keep running.
  • The speed climbs with distance, so the rhythm that worked at 300 m is too slow at 1,000 m. Start pressing a beat sooner.

Frequently asked questions

How do you play Dino Run?

Tap the screen, click, or press Space or the Up arrow to jump. Hold the Down arrow or the Duck button to slide under birds. Don't touch anything.

Does Dino Run end?

No — it is endless. The desert gets faster the further you run, and the score is how many metres you covered before hitting something.

What is the highest score in Dino Run?

There is no cap. Every run posts to the arcade leaderboard, so the top of the board is whatever the best runner has managed this week.
