About Crossy Road
Crossy Road is a free endless arcade game in which you hop a character across an unending series of roads, rivers and railway lines. Traffic, trains and floating logs all move on their own schedules, and one mistimed hop ends the run immediately.
Each lane type asks a different question. Roads are a timing problem — read the gap and go. Rivers are a positioning problem, because logs carry you sideways and drifting off the edge of the screen is fatal. Railways are a commitment problem: the warning light gives you a fixed window and there is no way to retreat once you are on the track.
The screen also scrolls forward slowly, so waiting for a perfect gap is not free. That pressure is what turns a simple concept into a genuinely tense game — the safest choice is always available for a few seconds and then it is not.
How to play Crossy Road
Hop forward, left, right or back to cross the lanes ahead. Time your crossings between traffic, ride logs across rivers without drifting off screen, and cross railway lines during gaps between trains. The screen scrolls forward slowly, so you cannot wait indefinitely.
Tips and strategy
- On rivers, hop against the direction the log is drifting to hold your position on screen.
- Cross railway lines immediately after a train passes, not before the warning light.
- Do not wait for a perfect gap. The scrolling screen makes hesitation as dangerous as a bad crossing.
- Move diagonally where possible — sideways hops that also gain ground are free progress.

How do you cross rivers in Crossy Road?
By hopping onto floating logs and lily pads. Logs drift sideways and carry you with them, so you need to hop against the drift to avoid being carried off the edge of the screen, which ends the run.
Can you stand still in Crossy Road?
Only briefly. The screen scrolls forward slowly and being caught by the bottom edge ends your run, so waiting for a perfect gap eventually becomes as risky as taking an imperfect one.
