๐Ÿ“– Cowboy Safari About

Lasso over your shoulder, any terrain ahead. Cowboy Safari is an adventure game where you catch wild animals during an endless run and bring them back to your own zoo. Every run offers a different combination of obstacles, species, and terrain pieces.

About Cowboy Safari

The game has two layers: running and zoo management. During the run, you press space to throw your lasso and land on the animal's back; you need to hold the key to keep your balance. Once the animal calms down it's caught and transferred to the Sky Zoo. Left and right arrow keys handle instant obstacles and hazards.

The Sky Zoo is the permanent home of the animals you catch. Expanding habitats increases visitor numbers and earns more money. That money goes toward both zoo development and animal abilities in the run. Rare species appear in specific regions โ€” and those regions need enough progress points to unlock.

Each animal has its own behavior pattern: some sprint fast, some jump low, some change direction suddenly. Recognizing these patterns is the easiest way to extend your run.

Why kids love it

Building an exotic animal collection and meeting different species on every run makes for a surprise-filled experience.
