Crossy Road Rush is an action-packed platforming island runner developed by HIPSTER WHALE, exclusively for Apple Arcade. Set on the colorful tropical shores of Crossy Cove, the peace has been disrupted by an angry Octoboss covering the island in goo. Players navigate rapid, hazard-filled tracks filled with oncoming obstacles, wild aquatic creatures, and absurd traps. Featuring dynamic movement mechanics like swerving, dodging, wall-riding, and bouncing, Crossy Road Rush shifts the classic arcade frogger-style gameplay into a full-velocity 3D obstacle runner. Complete with Game Controller support and zero ads, it delivers pure arcade adrenaline.

Our Expert Score
HIPSTER WHALE has taken their iconic voxel art style and transformed it into a thrilling, high-octane 3D platform runner in Crossy Road Rush. Moving away from the deliberate, step-by-step timing of the original Crossy Road, Rush throws players into a fast-moving gauntlet across Crossy Cove. The game feels remarkably fluid, blending lane-switching reflexes with momentum-based maneuvers like wall-running, sliding under hazards, and bouncing across marine creatures.
The addition of the Octoboss narrative gives the level progression purpose and urgency. Boss phases active during runs throw unexpected curves at you, forcing quick tactical decisions while moving at breakneck speeds. With crisp touch response, full physical controller support, and the complete absence of paywalls or forced ads thanks to Apple Arcade, Crossy Road Rush stands out as one of the best arcade platformers on the platform.
