Level 1 · City Park Sparrow Sprint gameplay: the sparrow racing past rivals over a city park
The starting grid

Six birds.
One line.

You always fly the sparrow. The other five are not scenery: they hold their own pace, drift across your path, and cost you if you clip one.

1You

Sparrow

Balanced, and the quickest to change its mind.

2

Cardinal

Highest top end, slow to wind up.

3

Robin

Recovers fastest from a knock.

4

Parrot

Random surges. Hard to read.

5

Pigeon

Long beats, hates stopping.

6

Crow

Shrugs off collisions.

How it plays

Position is speed.

Push forward and you fly faster, but the sky arrives sooner. Ease back and you buy reaction time at the cost of the lead. Where you sit on the screen is the difficulty dial, and it stays where you leave it.

  • Analog thumbstick bottom left, sized for a thumb already resting there.
  • BOOST on the right doubles as its own recharge gauge.
  • Hardware keyboard supported on tablets and Chromebooks.
  • No network needed once the race starts.

In flight

Built wide,
on purpose.

Sparrow Sprint is a landscape game everywhere it runs. The track reads left to right, so the screen does too.

Level 5 · Fallen City Level 5 over a fallen city at dusk, running second with an eagle closing
The climb

It tightens
every level.

Each level lifts the pace of the field, adds another eagle to the sky, and closes the gaps between hazards, across a rotating set of courses.

  • Faster rivals every level, up to a hard ceiling.
  • One more eagle every second level, to a maximum of five.
  • Tighter traffic as kites, balloons and drones fill the lanes.
  • Your best runs are kept on the device, not on a server.
On the dashboard

A race for the
parking lot.

Sparrow Sprint runs natively on Android Automotive OS, sized for the head unit and playable while the car is parked. The moment the vehicle starts moving, the race pauses itself.
