Draw Brush Running: Paint the Route Your Runner Takes

What is Draw Brush Running?
In this one you do not run, you draw the route that gets run. A coloured brush lays a path across the screen and your character follows it exactly. Draw without accounting for the buildings, gaps and black holes and the route walks you straight into them.
How to play
Drag a line across the screen with your finger or the mouse and the character follows it to the letter. The line can curve as much as you want, but obstacles appear without warning: skirt around a building, and arc away from a black hole. Stretch the route cleanly all the way to the end point and you win the level. If your line crosses an obstacle, the character walks that far and the run ends. Brush ink is limited, so do not waste it on needless curls.

Tips
- Draw short, soft curves; sharp corners slow the runner and raise the odds of clipping an obstacle.
- Wait a second before you start and read the obstacle layout at the top of the screen, then plan the route around it.
- Switch to straight strokes once the ink runs low, because fancy lines empty the brush before the finish.
Frequently asked questions
Can I change a route halfway through?
You can keep extending the line until you release it. Once the character reaches the end of the path, you draw a new one.
Is the game suitable for young children?
Yes, it is a calm one-finger drawing game with no violence, and a child who cannot read yet can pick it up by trying.
