Crowd Runner: Animal Defense

Lead an animal squad and defend your city from waves of invading beasts!

Crowd Runner combines a gate-running growth loop with wave-based defense combat into one hyper-casual game. Pick the right +/×/− gates on the road to grow your squad, then clash with the beast horde waiting at the end of every stage.

■ Gate Runner + Wave Defense
Every stage lays out a different mix of addition, multiplication, and subtraction gates that change your squad size in real time. The moment you choose a gate matters more than how fast you run. Wipe out a wave and collect an instant bounty, then earn a stage-clear bonus based on how many troops survive.

■ 6 Animal Characters, 5 City Themes
Unlock ally skins with your lifetime coins — frog, rabbit, cat, panda, bear, and the Golden King — while facing attackers that rotate every stage: wolves, boars, desert foxes, bats, and bears. Ten stages cycle through 5 city themes (Harbor, Sunset, Neon, Midnight, Skyline), each with its own mood.

■ Permanent Upgrades + Star Challenges
Spend coins earned in battle to permanently boost your starting squad size, victory bounty, and wall defense. Every stage is rated with stars based on survivor count, and cleared stages can always be replayed to chase a higher star rating or a new best record.

■ Perfect Timing + Fever Mode
A real-time scoring system checks whether you picked the mathematically better lane at that exact moment. Land three Perfects in a row to trigger Fever Mode — double coins and a full-screen effect burst.

■ Full Korean and English Support
Choose Korean or English directly from Settings; your choice is saved and stays after you restart the app.

Grow your crowd, pick your gates wisely, and feel the satisfaction of crushing the beast horde — defend the city in Crowd Runner today!
