Description

A chunky green hero is born, and they need your help in this animal rescue game…

The kākāpō, a flightless parrot, is an endangered species found only in New Zealand. They might be the heaviest parrots on earth, but they’re in serious trouble.

Welcome to the Kākāpō Run, a classic endless-runner game in which you explore the wilderness, find the kākāpō and safely bring them to Sanctuary Island. Avoid predators that block your way; knock them out or jump over them to keep the kākāpō out of danger!
To survive from invasive predators, the kākāpō must start running for its life.

To stay alive in this FREE game, players have to run, jump and dodge the different obstacles on their path and knock out or evade predators like rats and stoats, which, alongside dogs and cats, are key threats to the kākāpō and its chicks.

FEATURES:

* Keep on running in endless mode
* See if you have what it takes to rank in the top 10 of the leaderboards
* Share your score with your friends on social media and challenge them to beat you
* Collect feathers and spend on skins, accessories and hats. Can you unlock the exclusive special skins?
* Collect enough rimu seeds to power up. Don’t have enough? Purchase some from the shop
* Did you die before completing a game level? You can answer a quiz question and get to continue running as a reward
* Discover kākāpō facts on loading screens, trivia questions and impact points
* Hear the unique sounds of real kākāpō, from the unusual mating ‘boom’ to quirky squawks
* Four environments to traverse in an endless-runner game inspired by New Zealand's unique and varied landscape. From dense forests to idyllic coastlines and cities crammed with traffic terror
* Jump, dodge and swipe to avoid the oncoming obstacles, from deadly predators to rolling rocks

Kākāpō Run is a classic endless-runner game with a feathery hero: the kākāpō. It’s a parrot so large that it can’t fly, with a mating call so deep that it rumbles the floor. It’s the only bird left on Earth with a special distant cousin – the dodo – so we need to save it.

Plenty of dangers confront these “owl-parrots” in the wild … so many, in fact, that the 250-odd remaining kākāpō are on their own protected island in New Zealand. Your mission in Kākāpō Run: get the kākāpō to safety by running across a danger-ridden New Zealand to Sanctuary Island. Hungry stoats are just one of the challenges that face you as you jump, dodge, swipe, and slide through forests, shorelines, and cities.

Don't forget to catch the feathers and score extra points! Along the way, learn about the incredible kākāpō and how they’re being brought back from the edge of extinction.

‘Kākāpō Run’ is a classic endless-runner style game created by On the Edge. We’re working with indigenous communities and conservation groups in New Zealand to help save the kākāpō in real life. By playing the game, you can help to protect one of the world’s most unique birds.

On behalf of all kākāpō, thank you for playing the game and helping with their survival.

Ready to start running? Let’s play! Swipe down to slide under objects, swipe left to change lanes and swipe up to jump.

PLEASE NOTE! Kakapo Run is free to download and play and offers in-game purchases.

I read another review about this too. I loved the concept of the game, hence downloaded it. After the tutorial part, the game doesn't work at all. Can't open level 1. Please see through it. Until then, uninstalling the game
