About Nestrunners
Grab an egg, outrun the angry guardian, and hatch pets that earn coins - solo or online with friends!
Run up a long road through nine wild places, grab an egg from a nest and race the guardian that wakes up back to your pen. Eggs hatch into pets that make coins every second, so you can buy speed, reach rarer eggs and fill your Pet Book with all 54 pets - plus a daily gift that grows every day you come back. Play online with up to 6 people (friendly bots fill every empty spot), send friends an invite link to your island, and lock your gate or BONK sneaky rivals who try to take your pets.
How to play
Run up the road from your pen to the nests, grab an egg, and run back before its guardian catches you. If a guardian catches you, you only drop the egg. Eggs you bring home hatch into pets, and each pet makes coins every second. Spend coins in the SHOP on run speed and pen space, so you can outrun the faster guardians and reach better eggs farther up the road.
On a computer, run with the arrow keys or WASD, press Space or E to grab, take or BONK, L to lock your gate and B for the shop. On a phone, drag on the left side to run and use the big round button, LOCK and SHOP.

Tips and tricks
- Check the road bar before a long run. Striped parts have guardians too fast for you, so buy speed first.
- Rare and shiny eggs are heavier and slow you down. Golden pets earn 3 times as much and Rainbow pets 10 times.
- Your pen starts with 4 spots and can grow to 12. When it is full, the weakest pet, which may be the new one, is sold.
- Locking your gate keeps everyone out for 60 seconds. After that you must wait 45 seconds to lock it again.
- If someone runs off with your pet, catch them before they reach their pen and BONK them to get it back.
- Run over the blue arrow pads for a burst of speed.
What makes it fun
Nestrunners mixes a short chase with a slow idle build. Every trip up the road is a small race against a guardian, and every pet you bring home makes your coins grow faster, even while you are away. Each of the nine places has its own guardian and pets, from Clover Meadow to Starfall Summit. Sharing the island with other runners adds cheeky stealing and BONK fights.
