About Subway Surfers
Subway Surfers is the most downloaded mobile game of all time with over 3 billion downloads. This endless runner puts you in the shoes of graffiti-spraying teens dodging trains, barriers, and an angry inspector and his dog through vibrant city environments.
Swipe to turn, jump, and roll while collecting coins and power-ups. The hoverboard gives you a 30-second shield, the jetpack launches you above the tracks, and the magnet pulls coins toward you. Special characters and boards with unique abilities keep the gameplay varied.
Every few weeks, Subway Surfers travels to a new real-world city with themed characters, outfits, and scenery — from Tokyo to Cairo to New York. The World Tour updates keep the game feeling fresh year after year. Compete on weekly leaderboards and complete daily challenges for rewards.

User Reviews
I've been playing Subway Surfers on and off for literally 10 years. It's the perfect pick-up-and-play game. The new city themes every few weeks keep me coming back to see the new scenery and characters.
Safe, fun game that my kids love. No violent content, no chat features, and it works without internet so it's perfect for car rides. They compete for high scores and it keeps them entertained for hours.
The competition for weekly high scores is what keeps me going. There's actually a lot of skill involved in the later stages — timing your jumps and rolls perfectly while everything speeds up. My personal best is 12 million.
