Troll Run
A multiplayer race through trick levels where nothing works the way you expect. Dodge collapsing floors, chase runaway doors, and survive sneaky traps to finish first.
Everyone gets the same course and starts at the exact same second. The goal is simple: reach the door. The catch? Floors vanish under your feet, spikes pop up from nowhere, and the exit door might literally run away from you. Quick reflexes and pattern memory take the crown.
