What's New

Oops, looks like someone turned the lights off! Latest update fixes iOS 14 'black screen' issue. #SavetheKakapo

App Description

Watch out, watch out. There are stoats about...
And they’re hungry for a kākāpō - a parrot so large that they can’t fly.

Your mission is to get the kākāpō to safety by navigating across New Zealand to Sanctuary Island. And hungry stoats are just one of the challenges that face you as you jump, dodge and slide through forests, shorelines and cities to reach Sanctuary Island.

Along the way, the kākāpō will ask you for your help in their real-world fight for survival.

You see, there are only around 200 kākāpōs left in the whole world. If you play ‘Kākāpō Run’, we hope you’ll agree that the world needs more kākāpō, so you can help by showing your support on social media. You can use either Twitter, Facebook or Instagram to share or pledge.

And on behalf of all the kākāpō, Thank You for playing and helping with their survival.
Other features to look out for:

• No Adverts, No In App Purchases - Totally free!
• The unique sounds of real kākāpō, from the unusual mating ‘boom’ to the squarks and calls of kākāpō as they are saved!
• 4 Environments to traverse, inspired by New Zealand's unique and varied landscape. From dense forests to idyllic coastlines, you’ll even run through the city dodging trams and traffic!
• Predator pursuits Jump, Dodge and Swipe to avoid the stampede, if you are really skilful you can even knock out predators!
• On coming obstacles from predators to rolling rocks
• Stay updated with the Environmental news from around the world. Just click one of the blue radio towers on the Region Select globe to found out what’s going on in the world around you
