Ruby Raid

About Ruby Raid

Ruby Raid is a free arcade runner and shooter that you play in your browser, with nothing to download. You steal a sacred ruby, wake the Eye God, and sprint ahead of a laser beam that wants to end your run. Your goal is to survive the chase and reach the target distance.

When you play Ruby Raid online, your treasure hunter runs forward on its own, so your job is timing. Blocks, barriers and worshipers fill the path, and you clear them by jumping over them or shooting them down. Any pause lets the laser close the gap, and one hit ends the run.

Rubies you pick up along the way pay for new guns. The game has more than 25 weapons to unlock, and each run gets harder than the last, so a stronger arsenal matters. The Ruby Raid controls use just two keys, which makes it quick to learn and hard to put down.

Tips to get better at Ruby Raid

Shoot early. Clearing an obstacle from a distance is safer than waiting until you must jump, and it keeps your pace steady.
Jump over blocks and barriers rather than stopping, since any slowdown lets the laser catch up.
Collect rubies when they are on your route, but do not risk a crash for one. A dead run earns nothing more.
Spend your rubies on better guns between runs. Later runs are tougher, and stronger firepower clears the path faster.
Learn the rhythm of the two keys so you can jump and fire in quick succession when obstacles bunch up.
