About Paint Run
Paint Run is a crowd runner. Steer your paint crew through the best gates to grow your crowd, beat rival crews and paint the finish line in your color.
You lead a crowd of paint runners down a track. Swipe left and right to steer through gates. Some gates add runners or multiply your crowd, while others take runners away, so pick the best gate on each row.
Rival crews in other colors are on the track too. Run into them with a bigger crowd to win the clash. At the end, your crowd paints the finish line in your color. The bigger the crowd, the more you paint and the more you score. New tracks come level after level, and you can unlock new paint colors.

Tips to get a higher score

- Avoid minus gates even if it means skipping a plus.
- Only take on a rival crew that is smaller than yours.
- Steer early: the crowd needs a moment to move.
