Russian Subway Dogs

Russian Subway Dogs is an arcade game about stray dogs scavenging for food in Moscow’s subway. You run and jump along platforms, scare commuters into dropping food by barking behind them, and bounce vodka around each stage while dodging rivals and other dangers. The game features pixel art of Moscow’s decorated subway stations.

Campaign mode

Campaign Mode takes you through dozens of levels and more than 100 challenges set by your feline leader, the Proletaricat, and the mischievous Kittens. Challenges include finishing a level on a vegetarian diet, protecting a bear and stopping pigeons from cannibalizing each other. Complete enough levels and challenges to find the secret station at the end of the line.

Endless mode

In Endless Mode, you compete for places on online leaderboards. Random Proletaricat mini-challenges and a score-driven difficulty algorithm change each playthrough.

Food and survival

You can exploit the game’s simulated systems to earn points and deal with rival wildlife. Fire and ice, vodka explosions, cooking food and toxic chocolate all create ways to affect a stage. Eat toxic chocolate for major points or feed it to a poodle stealing your shawarma; drink hot sauce for powerful fire barks or give it to a pigeon for fire-pooping air support. You can also cook and eat rival wildlife with vodka explosions, and must contend with volatile vodka and the rare, dangerous Subway Bear.
