About Subway Surf Tokyo
Subway Surf Tokyo takes the endless runner to Japan: neon, cherry blossom and the same tracks-and-trains formula, sprinting forward while the speed climbs steadily beyond comfort.
Everything is in the four inputs — left, right, jump, roll — and how far ahead you can read the track.

Subway Surf Tokyo — questions
How is it different from other Subway Surf cities?
The setting and visuals change — Tokyo's neon and cherry blossom — while the running mechanics stay the same across the series.
How do you get a high score?
Look several lanes ahead rather than at the runner, and use train roofs, which give more reaction room than the tracks.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes — built for swiping. Nothing to install.
