Tsunami Race

One wrong move and the wave catches you - that's the whole tension in Tsunami Race. You pick a character, then it's tap-and-hold to sprint, weave, and slide your way clear of whatever the tsunami is about to swallow.

What keeps you coming back is the variety packed into short runs. One mode has you dodging fruit raining down on the track, another drops you onto water slides where a single stumble means the wave wins. Each run is quick enough to justify just one more go.

No downloads, no registration, and it runs straight in your browser on desktop, Android, or iPhone. If you're already the type who bookmarks Browser Games for a quick fix, Tsunami Race slots right in alongside your other Addictive Games.

It's built for landscape play and built for speed, so there's not much standing between you and your first race against the water.

Outrun the tsunami before it catches you. Race through obstacles, dodge falling fruit, or hold your line on the water slides depending on which mode you've picked - the wave is always closing in behind you.

Controls are simple: tap and hold on the screen to move your character. Let go to slow or reposition, and hold again the moment you spot the next gap.

Pick your character first, since you'll be staring at them for the whole run. Stay loose on the water slides especially - hesitating for even a second there is usually what lets the tsunami catch up.
