Super Tunnel Rush is a browser-based 3D tunnel-dodge game published on Poki by the independent London studio Deer Cat Games, best known for the original Tunnel Rush. You automatically speed forward through a glowing, ever-curving tunnel while steering left or right to slip through gaps in oncoming barriers and speed bumps, collecting shields and boosts along the way. On top of that classic dodge-and-survive core, this build layers light racing structure — Career runs, Quick Races, and Daily Challenges — with unlockable tracks and cosmetic options as you progress. At heart it still plays like the rest of the tunnel-dodge genre: no story, just reflexes, pattern-reading, and a tunnel that keeps accelerating and never waits for you.
How to play Super Tunnel Rush
- You move automatically down the tunnel — your only job is steering left or right to stay in the open path as the walls rotate and obstacles rush toward you.
- Watch a few obstacles ahead rather than the one right in front of you, and steer toward the gap before it reaches you.
- Avoid hitting barriers and speed bumps; contact typically ends the run (or costs a shield/life if one is active).
- Grab shields and boosts when they're safely in your path — they help you survive longer or move faster, but aren't worth risky detours.
- Speed increases continuously the longer you survive, so your margin for error keeps shrinking — stay ahead of the curve instead of reacting at the last second.
- There's no finish line in the dodge portion — the goal is to rack up distance/score (and, in this build, to clear Career/Quick Race/Daily Challenge runs) before you crash.
Controls
- Desktop: Steer with A/D or the Left/Right arrow keys, or click-and-hold with the mouse to move toward that side. There's no separate accelerate/brake key — forward speed is automatic and keeps increasing.
- Mobile / tablet: Tap and hold the left or right half of the screen to steer in that direction; release to recenter. No swipes or virtual joystick needed.
Super Tunnel Rush tips & strategy
- Focus on the gap you're steering toward, not the obstacle you're avoiding — fixating on the barrier causes overcorrection and second-guessing.
- Make small, early corrections instead of sharp, late ones — since speed keeps ramping up, tiny early adjustments are safer than last-moment dodges.
- Learn to anticipate rather than purely react — obstacle patterns often telegraph a beat before they arrive, so reading ahead beats pure reflex.
- Try both steering methods (keys vs. mouse) and stick with whichever feels more precise at high speed — one often gives finer control than the other for you personally.
- Play in short, focused sessions — reflex accuracy drops with fatigue, and this genre rewards fresh attention more than long grinding runs.
- Don't detour for every collectible — a clean dodge is worth more than a risky reach for a shield or boost you don't need.

Super Tunnel Rush gameplay video
In this clip: A blue car with white stripes races through curving tunnels and open track sections, with the HUD showing a single lap (LAP 1/1). The position readout goes from 3/10 in the first frame to 1/10 in the later ones, and the speed readout rises from 67 MPH to around 110 MPH. An early on-screen tip reads "Drive over the green arrows to get a speed boost!"
