How it plays

Race, wobble, qualify

Every round is a race over an obstacle course full of things that spin, sweep, bounce and fall. Eight animals start. Not all of them finish on their feet.

  1. Race the course

    Up to 8 animals line up. Spinning bars, sweepers, bumpers and falling floors stand between you and the finish.

  2. Fall over, get up

    Get bonked, tumble, bounce and pop right back up. Fall off the course and you're back at the last checkpoint in a second.

  3. Qualify or you're out

    Only the first five across the line qualify, and the first three take the podium. Everyone else is out of the round, so don't stop to wave. (Or do: there's a button for that.)

  • Run
  • Jump
  • Dive (a glorious belly flop)
  • Wave and dance
  • Touch, keyboard and mouse, or a gamepad
The animals

Choose your animal

Seventeen chibi plush critters, now with three monkeys, all with big heads, tiny legs and zero sense of balance. Pick one in the game's animal picker; the bots take the others.

The corgi, waving

Corgi

Tiny legs, huge ambitions.

The courses

Ten courses, ten ways to fall

Each course has its own tricks. SOLO and online races pick one at random every round (QUICK RACE lets you skip up to three you don't like); a LAN PARTY host can pick the course.

Features

Made for parties

Race players online

QUICK RACE drops you into a race in seconds. Race players online. Bots fill the empty places. Most races run on our own server, so the other players never see your IP address.

Race with your friends

INVITE FRIENDS makes a room with a code to share; friends type it in JOIN FRIENDS, or tap your room once you're friends. Add friends in a room or from the results of a QUICK RACE. JUST US keeps the race to your friends.

LAN party for 8

Switch on LAN PARTY in your room and friends on the same Wi-Fi join with one tap, no internet needed. Nothing leaves your network. Bots fill the empty places, so every race has eight runners.

Earn paws, dress up

Finish in the top 3 of a QUICK RACE (or a friends' race with other players) to earn paws, then spend them in the shop on coats, hats, glasses and more. Everyone in the race sees your look. Paws are earned by playing, never sold.

Phones and PCs together

Cross-play: iPhone, Android, Mac, Windows and Linux race in the same online or LAN game. Same courses, same rules, same tumbles.

Touch controls your way

Drag every button to where your thumbs want it, then make it bigger, smaller or see-through. Keyboard, mouse and gamepads work too.

Music and sounds

Every course has its own tune, and it speeds up when the last qualifying spots are close. Each animal has its own calls, and every course has its own ambient sounds.

Friendly for everyone

No chat and no ads. Names are checked to keep them kind, a racer's card has REPORT NAME and BLOCK, and a parents' switch in Settings turns online play off.

FAQ

Questions

How much does it cost?

Clumsy Paws is a one-time purchase (US$2.99), with no ads and no in-app purchases. The invite test builds are free for invited testers.

Can I play online?

Yes. In PLAY > MULTIPLAYER, QUICK RACE puts you in a race in seconds: race players online, and bots fill the empty places. INVITE FRIENDS makes a room with a code to share, and JOIN FRIENDS takes you into a friend's room. You can also play SOLO against bots, or with friends on the same Wi-Fi: switch on LAN PARTY in your room. Up to 8 per race. Online races normally run on our server, so the other players don't see your IP address (details in the privacy page).

Are the other racers real people?

Some are. QUICK RACE: race players online. Bots fill the empty places, so you never wait long. Bots look like players: tap a racer to open their card, and a bot's card says so. Bots never earn paws.

How do I earn paws?

Finish in the top 3 of a QUICK RACE, or of a friends' race with other players, for 30, 20 or 10 paws, up to a daily limit. Spend them in the SHOP on looks. SOLO, JUST US and LAN PARTY races don't earn paws, and on iPhone and Mac the App Store must confirm your copy first (MY PAWS, CONFIRM MY COPY).

Which phones does it run on?

iPhones with iOS 16 or newer. On Android: Android 10 or newer on a 64-bit phone with Vulkan graphics, which covers most phones from the last few years. If it stutters, Settings has a Low graphics preset.

Do I need an account?

No. There are no accounts and no sign-in. Your name, your animal and your settings stay on your device; your paws, looks and friends are kept on our server under an anonymous player id (see the privacy page).

Is it OK for kids?

The animals only tumble and get right back up: cartoon knockbacks, no harm. There's no chat, no ads and no in-app purchases. Online, other players see only your player name, your animal and your look; names are checked to keep them kind, any player can be reported or blocked, and a parents' switch in Settings turns online play off.

When can I play, and on what?

Clumsy Paws 1.0 is on the App Store for iPhone now. The Mac version is coming soon; invited testers play it on TestFlight. On Android, Windows and Linux the game is open to invited testers (one invite code per device). All platforms get the same updates, and they all race together.
