Shout Sprint Runner game guide
Goal of the game
In Shout Sprint Runner you play with your face and head movements. Move your NOSE left / right to switch between 3 lanes. Say JUMP (or any sharp sound) to leap over barriers, DUCK to slide under high bars, and BOOST for an unstoppable 2-second dash that smashes everything (8 s recharge). Grab coins and power-ups!
Each run in Shout Sprint Runner lasts until you lose your 3 lives, so the real goal is to survive longer and beat your own best score.

- If Shout Sprint Runner feels too hard at first, play a practice round to learn the timing before chasing a high score.
