What is Scoopharius

Scoopharius is a snack-fueled arcade sprint where you guide a hungry dinosaur through a gauntlet of treats and traps. Quick reflexes and steady nerves are your only allies in this sugary scramble.

How to Play

Steer your dinosaur with simple directional inputs to move left and right, scooping up goodies while avoiding incoming obstacles. Each treat adds to your score, but one collision ends the run, so stay sharp.

Watch the edges of the screen to spot hazards before they enter your lane.
Learn the rhythm of obstacle patterns to time your dashes smoothly.
Chain your movements to cut across the area efficiently without overcorrecting.
Take a breath and stay calm—panicking can lead to careless crashes.
