How to Play Commando Run

  1. On mobile, use the left buttons to move forward/back and jump, and the right buttons to fire and throw grenades. On desktop, move with the arrow keys, jump with Up or Space, fire with Z, and throw grenades with X.
  2. Advance to the right until you reach the green goal flag to clear the stage. The progress bar at the top shows how far you are from the flag.
  3. When an enemy gets within arm's reach, you automatically strike with the knife — an instant kill worth bonus points. Rushing in is risky but rewarding.
  4. You have 3 lives. Enemy bullets, grenades, and contact cost one life each. Grenades arc over crates and blast groups of enemies — save them for turrets and clusters!

About Commando Run

Commando Run is a side-scrolling run-and-gun shooter inspired by classic arcade action games. Push from left to right through enemy territory, shooting soldiers, dodging grenades, and taking out turrets until you reach the goal flag.

Get close to an enemy and your commando automatically switches to the knife for an instant takedown with bonus points — the classic arcade melee thrill. Each stage gets longer and denser: grenadiers join from stage 2 and armored turrets from stage 3.

You have 3 lives per run. Every kill scores points, knife kills add a bonus, and each cleared stage awards extra points. How deep into enemy territory can you push?

Tips & Strategy

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the automatic knife attack work?

Whenever an enemy comes within close range, your commando instantly switches to the knife and takes them down in one strike — no button needed. Knife kills award the enemy's normal score plus a bonus, so aggressive close-quarters play earns more points.

What enemy types are there?

Foot soldiers advance and fire straight shots, grenadiers lob arcing grenades from a distance starting at stage 2, and fixed turrets fire aimed shots and take two hits starting at stage 3. Later stages pack more enemies into longer runs.

How is the score calculated?

Soldiers are worth 100 points, grenadiers 150, and turrets 200. Every knife kill adds a 50-point bonus, and clearing a stage awards 100 points times the stage number, so pushing deep is the key to a high score.
