Rungs
Gobble ladders, dodge snakes
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Six levels, a snake-smashing dash, and an Endless Mode for chasing high scores. Pay once, play forever.
Run, jump, and outsmart the drop.
Rungs is a fast-paced auto-runner. Tap to hop, hold for a full leap, and time your landings across gaps, moving platforms, crumbling floors, and bounce pads. Pick up glowing rungs to build your combo multiplier before the timer runs out, and fill the meter to get a quick magnet and invincibility boost.
You can carry up to 5 rungs at a time and use them in two ways: tap JUMP mid-air to double-jump, or tap RUNG to drop a temporary foothold right under your feet mid-fall. Keep an eye out for snakes—if one bites you without a shield, you lose all your stored rungs instantly. Use your DASH to smash right through them instead.
HOW TO PLAY
Tap JUMP to hop, hold to jump higher, tap mid-air to double-jump (costs 1 rung)
Tap RUNG to spawn a platform under your feet (costs 1 rung)
Tap DASH for a speed burst that smashes snakes
Collect rungs to keep your combo going
6 LEVELS + ENDLESS MODE
Earn up to three stars per level by finishing, collecting rungs, or completing a flawless run. Levels get tougher as you go, moving from simple platforms to snake-filled high-wire tracks. Clear the first six levels to unlock Endless Mode, a procedurally generated run where you try to get the highest score possible with 3 hearts.
Levels 1–3 are completely free with no ads. A single one-time purchase unlocks Levels 4–6 and Endless Mode.

A proper front door.
Rungs now opens on a level select screen — every level as a tile with
the stars you've earned, and a MENU button in-game so you can get back
to it whenever you like. Endless Mode is no longer a one-way trip.
Endless Mode has stakes.
Endless Mode now has a Game Center leaderboard — chase the top spot, not just your own best.
You now run on three hearts: lose one to a pit or an unshielded snake,
and when they're gone the run is over. Your best Endless score is kept
and shown on the tile. The campaign is untouched — unlimited retries,
same as always.
And Full Access is now available: levels 4-6 plus Endless Mode, in one
purchase. Levels 1-3 stay free forever.
