How to play Dungeon Dash
Dungeon Dash is a free AR face tracking game you can play online with no download. FACE ONLY. The hero runs automatically. BLINK hard (or open your mouth) to JUMP over spike traps, barrels and charging orcs. Jump over a treasure chest to grab it! It uses on-device AI tracking, so Dungeon Dash turns any webcam or phone camera into a motion controller – a fun way to move, laugh and show friends what the browser can do.
Open Dungeon Dash, allow camera access and hold still for a second while your face is detected. Video is processed on your device and never uploaded.
Controls
- Move or tilt your head (nose) to steer and aim.
- Open your mouth or blink for the special action shown on screen.
- Look straight at the camera at the start so the game can calibrate.
Tips
- Face a window or lamp – good light makes tracking far more accurate.
- Keep your whole face inside the frame, about an arm's length from the camera.
- Collect power-ups like shields, magnets and slow motion for big combos.

Dungeon Dash game guide
Goal of the game
In Dungeon Dash you play with your face and head movements. The hero runs automatically. BLINK hard (or open your mouth) to JUMP over spike traps, barrels and charging orcs. Jump over a treasure chest to grab it!
Each run in Dungeon Dash lasts until you lose your 3 lives, so the real goal is to survive longer and beat your own best score.
Quick start
Dungeon Dash in one line: Your hero sprints through the dungeon — blink or open your mouth to jump!
- Press Play on this page — Dungeon Dash loads in a few seconds right in the browser.
- Tap Allow when the browser asks for the camera, then read the short tutorial card.
- Play your first run of Dungeon Dash slowly to learn how it reacts to your face and head movements.
- After a game over, press Play again to try to beat your best.
Controls explained
- Quick reminder shown in Dungeon Dash: Blink or open mouth = JUMP.
- Sit facing the camera with your whole face in view; Dungeon Dash reads your nose position, blinks and mouth on your own device.
- Exaggerate actions a little — a clear blink or wide-open mouth registers more reliably in Dungeon Dash than a tiny one.
- If Dungeon Dash feels too hard at first, play a practice round to learn the timing before chasing a high score.
Scoring and levels
Points in Dungeon Dash come from the code-defined rewards of 5 and 20 points for different actions, so the bigger moves are worth chasing. You start with 3 lives. Your best score is saved in your browser, and signed-in players also appear on the Dungeon Dash leaderboard.
Characters and world
The 3D world of Dungeon Dash features humans, orcs, traps, barrels and chests. Learning how each one moves is the key to reading the screen quickly.
Tips and strategy
- Don't chase every pickup in Dungeon Dash — grab only the ones on your safe path.
- Good, even lighting from the front makes tracking in Dungeon Dash far more reliable than a bright window behind you.
- Replay Dungeon Dash a few times: each run teaches you the patterns, and scores usually double after the first five games.
Device requirements and privacy
Dungeon Dash needs a front-facing or web camera and works in Chrome, Edge and Safari on phones, tablets and computers. Allow camera access when asked; face tracking runs on your device and nothing is recorded or uploaded unless you choose to record a clip yourself. It is free to play; free players may see a short ad between rounds (never during play), and Premium removes all ads.
