Coin Rush

How to play Coin Rush

1. Watch the top of the screen — coins begin dropping one after another, each falling in a straight line.
2. Slide your basket left or right to sit directly beneath a coin before it reaches the bottom.
3. Catch a coin and your score climbs by one; every catch counts toward the target of 12.
4. Miss a coin and it costs you a life — you start with three, shown at the top.
5. Stay alive and notice the fall speed creeping up the longer your run lasts; keep your movements tight.
6. Reach 12 caught coins to clear the round, or lose all three lives and the game ends.

Controls

On a phone or tablet, drag your thumb left and right anywhere along the play area to glide the basket — it tracks your finger, so you can pre-position it under the next coin. On a desktop, move the mouse or use the left and right arrow keys to steer.

Tips & strategy

• Hover near the centre between catches — from the middle you have the shortest dash to a coin landing on either side.
• Read the coin's horizontal position the instant it appears, not when it nears the bottom; deciding early gives you time to arrive cleanly.
• When two coins fall close together, catch the one nearer the edge first, then sweep back toward the middle for the second.
• As the speed ramps up, make smaller, quicker corrections rather than long swings — overshooting is how most lives get lost late on.
• Protect your lives early: a miss at speed 1 costs exactly as much as a miss at speed 3, so never gamble on a coin you clearly can't reach.
• On touch, keep your thumb resting on the screen the whole run so the basket is always live — lifting off loses you a beat of reaction time.

About Coin Rush

Coin Rush is a fast little catch game with one simple promise: keep the coins off the floor. They tumble from the top of the screen at a steady rhythm, and your only job is to be in the right place when each one lands. Slide your basket along the bottom, line up the drop, and pocket every coin you can.

The catch is that you only have three lives, and a single missed coin spends one of them. The longer you survive, the quicker the coins fall — so a clean early run slowly turns into a proper test of nerve.

A good run of Coin Rush has a lovely flow to it. The early coins drift down slowly enough that catching them feels effortless, and that easy success pulls you in. Then the pace tightens, your catches start landing at the last possible pixel, and suddenly clearing 12 feels like a real little victory rather than a formality.

What makes it so moreish is the honesty of the stakes: every miss is yours alone, and three lives is just enough rope to learn from a mistake without forgiving carelessness. It is the kind of game you fire up for one round and finish six rounds later, certain the next attempt is the one where you finally keep a perfect streak.
