What is Cowboy Safari? An Adventure on the Backs of Wild Beasts

Forget everything you know about ordinary running games. Cowboy Safari, developed by Azgames, is a unique blend of intense, endless running and strategic zoo management. You are not just a cowboy; you are a beast tamer, a zoo curator, and an explorer all in one. Your playground is a breathtaking world of floating 3D pixel-art islands, from the sprawling Savannah to the treacherous Mountains, each teeming with exotic animals waiting to be tamed.

How to Play Cowboy Safari: Mastering the Perfect Leap

The goal is simple: ride as far as you can, tame as many animals as possible, and grow your sky-high zoo. But mastering it requires skill and strategy.

Basic Controls: Keeping Your Balance on the Wild Side

Arrow Keys (← →): Steer your animal to avoid obstacles and line up your next jump.
Spacebar is Your Lasso: This is your most important tool.
- Press & Hold: Aim your lasso at the next animal target.
- Release: Leap from your current mount to the new one.
- Pro Tip: Every animal has a unique "temperament." Watch for subtle signs, such as a slight twitch or a hop. Jumping just before they buck you off is the key to a long run.

Building Your Sky Zoo: The Secret to a Steady Gold Income

Every animal you tame returns to your magnificent floating zoo, held aloft by hot air balloons. This is your passive income engine.

Mastering Upgrades: Smart Investments for Maximum Profit

Don't upgrade randomly! Each animal habitat can be upgraded 8 times. Follow this priority:

  • Upgrades 1-3: Increase riding time (stamina).
  • Upgrade 4 (TOP PRIORITY): Boosts passive income from that habitat by 50%. Get this for every animal first.
  • Upgrades 5-8: Unlock special abilities like crate multipliers and increase chances of finding rare "shiny" animals.

Conquering Missions & Bosses: Your Path to Riches

Missions are your primary source of gold. You can hold three at a time.

Regular & Boss Missions: How to "Farm Gold" Efficiently

Regular Missions: Rewards scale with difficulty (e.g., 50 Gold in Savannah, 1350 Gold in Mountains).
GOLDEN STRATEGY: Select and complete multiple missions in a SINGLE run. A perfectly planned ride can earn you over 4,000 Gold.
Boss Missions: Extreme challenges with tough terrain. Upgrade the required animal to Level 4 or 5 before attempting these for a legendary reward.

Animal Guide: Choosing Your Perfect Steed

Know your mount! Each animal behaves differently:

  • Buffalo: The reliable all-rounder, perfect for beginners.
  • Zebra: Incredibly fast but hard to control, for expert riders.
  • Ostrich: The ultimate crate-smasher. Target crates when riding it.
  • Elephant: A tank. Hard to buck you off but turns slowly.
  • Lion: Ferocious and fast, the choice for seasoned pros.
