Sketch Sprint
A fast endless runner with sharp corners, drawn like a page from a sketchbook. Pick your runner from eight kids, then race a path that twists left and right through five places: downtown, the backyard, the park, a creek and the woods. Swipe the way the arrow points to take each corner, jump logs and gaps, slide under nets and branches, and grab gold stars for points. Catch a paper plane to fly, a magnet to pull stars in, a bubble that saves you once, or a skateboard to zoom through anything. Every 500 meters a new wave starts: faster, with a bigger multiplier. Stars you collect add up between runs and unlock new runners.

How to play
- Your runner races down the path on their own and gets faster the longer you last.
- The path turns 90 degrees left and right. An arrow sign and a rail mark each corner: swipe that way just before you reach it. Miss it and you run into the rail.
- Change lanes to get around walls, hot dog carts, lookout towers and fallen trees. Tall walls block a whole lane, so go around them.
- Jump over low things like logs, sandbox castles and ducks, and over gaps in the path. Slide under branches, picnic blankets and nets.
- Grab gold stars for 10 points each. You also score for every meter you run and a bonus for every corner.
- Bump into something head on and the run is over. Bump the side of something and you stumble, but a second stumble soon after ends the run.
- Every 500 meters is a new wave: faster, with a bigger score multiplier. Stars add up between runs: Clare unlocks at 150, George at 400, Joan at 800, then John, Catherine, Joseph and Thérèse.
Controls
- Computer: use the arrow keys or A and D to change lanes and turn corners, Up, W or Space to jump, and Down or S to slide. You can also drag with the mouse.
- Phone or tablet: swipe left or right to change lanes, swipe up to jump and swipe down to slide.
- Press P or Esc, or tap the pause button, to take a break.
- The sound button turns sound on or off.
Tips
- Look ahead, not at your runner. Big things in the distance give you lots of time to pick a lane.
- Swipe down while you're in the air to drop fast, then slide straight under the next net.
- Wait until you're past something before you switch lanes, or you'll bump its side.
- A paper plane lets you fly over everything and grab a line of stars in the sky.
- A magnet pulls stars to you, and a bubble saves you from one bump.
