Mob Runner

About Mob Runner

Mob Runner is a crowd-multiplier arcade game you play straight in your browser. You command a cannon at the bottom of a long road and fire a steady stream of little blue soldiers up toward the enemy. Between you and the boss at the far end are coloured gates, walls and charging red armies. Every soldier that runs through a blue or green gate is copied, so a single good line of fire can turn ten soldiers into hundreds. The red gates do the opposite: a −10 gate swallows soldiers until it breaks, and a ÷2 gate halves whatever passes through.

Each level is a road split into three to five stages. Your cannon parks at a stage and the gates in front of it stay put for the whole fight, so every shot you fire passes through them. Clear the stage by beating its timed waves or smashing its wall, and the cannon rolls on to the next stop with your surviving army marching beside it. The final stage is always a boss that walks slowly toward you. Bring it down before it, or any red soldier, reaches the cannon.

Soldiers that get far enough ahead wait at a rally line and spread into a formation across the road, so your army grows with your aim and fire rate rather than spiralling out of control. Later levels add sliding gates, forks where one lane is greedy and the other safe, climbing ×2 ×3 ×4 ×5 columns along the edges, and giant enemies that count as many soldiers at once.

Between levels you spend coins on four upgrades: fire rate, starting army, extra barrels (up to three streams of soldiers) and coin income. The road runs through four themed worlds, desert, meadow, snow and lava, each with its own boss. Thirty hand-calibrated levels lead into an endless mode that keeps replaying the hardest layouts with stronger enemies every cycle. Mob Runner is free, needs no download or account, and saves your progress automatically in your browser.

How to play

1. Hold and drag to fire soldiers from the cannon and steer them across the road.
2. Run soldiers through blue and green +N and ×N gates to multiply your army. Avoid the red −N and ÷2 traps.
3. Red waves cancel your soldiers one for one, and walls soak up soldiers equal to their HP. Clear each stage to roll the cannon forward.
4. Beat the boss at the end of the road before it reaches your cannon.
5. Spend coins between levels on fire rate, starting army, extra barrels and income.
6. Desktop: ←/→ or A/D to steer, Space to fire, Esc or P to pause, Enter to start.

Tips and strategy

• Aim for the gate that multiplies, not the one that adds: ×2 on a big stream beats +10 almost every time.
• Keep firing through the same gate while the cannon is parked. Every shot passes it again, so a good line compounds.
• Red waves cancel soldiers one for one. Meet them head on in the middle of the road instead of letting them reach your cannon.
• On a fork, the greedy lane pays off only if you can break its wall. Early on, the steady lane is safer.
• Buy fire rate and barrels first. More soldiers through each gate is worth more than a bigger starting army.
