Kangu RunTravel time is now game time
Kangu Run
No more boredom in Istanbul traffic, on the metro, Marmaray or Metrobüs. Run the lines you ride every day with a mother kangaroo, gather joeys and speed up stop by stop. Even when the tunnel kills your signal, the game keeps going.

The best stop on your commute
In Istanbul a big part of the day is spent on the move. Kangu Run was made to turn that time into fun.
No signal in the tunnel?
No problem. Kangu Run plays offline, and your scores are sent automatically once you are back online.
Under the Bosphorus on Marmaray
Keep playing in the undersea tunnel, underground and anywhere without signal. Going underground does not end your game.
Standing on the Metrobüs
A run lasts a few minutes: easily one between two stops. It plays one-handed, even while holding on.
Stuck in traffic?
In the passenger seat it is the perfect time. Even bridge traffic feels as short as a run. (Driving? Eyes on the road!)
Play the line you ride every day
The M2 to Hacıosman, the M4 from Kadıköy to Sabiha Gökçen, Marmaray from Gebze to Halkalı, the Metrobüs from Söğütlüçeşme to Beylikdüzü… Stations come in their real order. Play your own route and see if you can make it to your stop.
What is Kangu Run?
Kangu Run is a free mobile endless runner set on Istanbul's public transport lines. Kira, a mother kangaroo, gathers her scattered joeys along the metro, Marmaray and Metrobüs lines and delivers them to the safe zone at every station.
Jump and slide past turnstiles, suitcases, crowds, seagulls and wet floors. The more joeys you carry in the pouch, the more a delivery is worth, but a heavy pouch makes your jumps lower. The run starts slow and speeds up at every stop. Climb the weekly leaderboard with your best run and challenge friends to duels by username.
Why Kangu Run?
Short runs, real lines and a race that gets a little faster at every stop.
13 real lines
Metro lines M1A to M11, Marmaray and Metrobüs, with stations in their real order.
Weekly competition
Climb the board with the week's best run and challenge friends to duels.
Tricky joeys
Some joeys sit right next to an obstacle: time your jump perfectly to grab them.
One-handed
Tap or swipe to jump and slide. Simple enough to play while holding on.
