Robot Unicorn Dash
The pitch
Enter a dreamy, neon world full of sparkles, stars, and rainbow roads. In Robot Unicorn Dash, your Robot Unicorn runs nonstop through magical landscapes where every second gets faster and harder. Jump over gaps, dodge dangerous obstacles (like dark crystals), and keep the run alive as long as you can while chasing a new high score.
Controls & how it runs
1. Tap to jump, tap again for a double jump. 2. Fly across rainbows and avoid dark crystals. 3. Collect stars and keep your Robot Unicorn alive as long as you can. 4. Don’t stop running – it’s a true test of your reflexes and timing.
Getting a run going takes exactly one press: Press start, up top, and the game boots inside this page — nothing downloads in the background and no form wants your details before the first jump. The cabinet is drawn for a landscape (wide) screen and listens to mouse, keyboard or touch, whichever the game prefers. This cabinet runs wide: landscape screens flatter it, so tip a phone on its side or hand it a tablet or desktop and let it stretch out. Given a fullscreen button, use it — scores look better at full size, that's just science.
Pro tips for arcade cabinets
- Treat your first run as a scouting mission. Arcade cabinets hide their cruelty in the second minute, not the first — learn where the difficulty spikes before you start chasing numbers.
- Small scores compound. Grab the easy pickups on every pass instead of gambling the whole run on one heroic line; heroes respawn, banked points don't evaporate.
- Watch the edges of the screen. In classic arcade design the next problem almost always enters from somewhere you weren't looking — build the habit of scanning the borders.

It stands on our Arcade row — that's the family it plays most like. The pitch above is the publisher's own rundown of what it throws at you and what it hands back.
Can I play Robot Unicorn Dash on my phone?
Happily, yes. It runs inside the browser on phones and tablets the same way it does on a computer. This cabinet runs wide: landscape screens flatter it, so tip a phone on its side or hand it a tablet or desktop and let it stretch out.
Do I need to install anything first?
Nothing whatsoever. Robot Unicorn Dash is an HTML5 game: hit the start button and it boots on this page, and shutting the tab sweeps the cabinet clean behind you.
