Crossy Road

Crossy Road is an endlessly charming endless hopper inspired by the classic arcade game Frogger. You guide a chicken (or dozens of unlockable characters) across an infinite series of busy roads, rushing rivers, and speeding train tracks — one hop at a time — without getting hit, squashed, or swept away.

The game's appeal is universal: simple one-tap controls, delightful voxel art, and a relaxed difficulty curve that's welcoming for newcomers but demanding enough to keep skilled players chasing higher scores. The variety of unlockable characters gives it tremendous replayability, with each character adding personality to the same core experience.

Crossy Road pairs perfectly with other casual classics in the jumping games genre. If you enjoy the reflexes and timing of Crossy Road, push those skills further with Geometry Rash — or return to the original road-crossing concept that inspired it all. Also try Flappy Bird and Doodle Jump!

How to Play Crossy Road

Hop Forward

Tap or press the up arrow to hop forward — one square at a time. Each hop is a decision, not a continuous movement. Think before each tap.

Dodge Traffic

Cars, trucks, and trains move in set lanes. Watch their speed and spacing, then hop through gaps when the lane is clear.

Navigate the River

Jump onto logs and lily pads to cross rivers. They move, so hop between them carefully — stay too long on one and it carries you off the screen.

Controls

Swipe or tap directional buttons to hop. Move forward
backward
left
or right.

Tips for Success

Keep moving forward. Standing still too long triggers the eagle — a game-ending event where a bird swoops in and removes you from the screen.
Plan two hops ahead. Don't just react to the current lane — look at the next obstacle while crossing the one in front of you.
Log width varies. Longer logs are safer for multiple hops; short logs require quick transitions. Identify log length before jumping on.
Trucks travel faster than cars. Give trucks extra clearance. Their speed makes them more dangerous despite being more visible.
Side-hops buy time. If you're stuck waiting for a safe gap, hop sideways to create options without moving into danger.
