Phone: Izzy runs automatically, starting at an easy trot and building speed over the first 24 seconds of running. Swipe anywhere on the park to steer. Tap LEAP to jump; faster running makes a longer bound. Jump early to clear low fences and land on the other side. Hold BOOST to build up to full zoomies whenever you’re ready; hold BRAKE early for tight corners. Momentum carries you forward after releasing the controls. TURN looks back; Izzy needs room to turn. Use landscape for the widest view. Auto-run can be switched off and BOOST held to run.

Desktop: WASD move, mouse or arrows steer, Shift boost, Space leap, E bark, Q look behind, R auto-run, P poo, Esc pause.

Your objective: catch pigeons and squirrels. A catch registers when you get close enough; the animal escapes unharmed and returns elsewhere in the park. Fill both species targets to advance a round. Occasional green parrots are rare bonus catches worth 750 base points, plus streak and airborne bonuses. They count towards your career, while round targets stay focused on squirrels and pigeons. Six permanent ranks unlock at 0, 10, 30, 60, 100 and 180 lifetime catches, saved on this browser. Close the gap before wildlife escapes. Pigeons flap into the air; squirrels zigzag away. Approach from upwind, then sprint or leap to get close. Chain chases for multipliers and airborne bonuses. Bark scatters nearby wildlife for a smaller points reward; only close catches count towards targets and ranks. Each round increases alertness, fleeing speed and the chase target. A full poo meter forces a six-second stop; an early break takes 3.5 seconds. Free roam removes the countdown. Izzy accelerates, coasts and takes time to brake. Turning at speed makes a wide arc, and jumps carry momentum. Toilet breaks begin once she has slowed down.

Park trails: Optional painted-egg, watering-stop, leaf-pile and woodland trails unlock at rounds 1–4. Follow the bonus arrow and run through each marker to earn 500 points, 12 seconds and a permanent badge. Free roam opens every trail. These playful challenges draw on Brian’s blog across the seasons; they are not a live events calendar.

Ground layout: © OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL. Mapped paths, park boundary, meadow, Bird Garden and surrounding building footprints. Building data rechecked on 11 October 2026; available storey and roof tags are used. Untagged heights, roof forms and façades are estimates, informed by the local brick and slate architecture. Planting, smaller landmark positions and people are artistic reconstructions informed by Brian’s Blog and photos. The game depicts summer flowering, rather than the meadow after its autumn cut.

Theme: Richard Wagner’s Ride of the Valkyries, from the MIDI you selected on BitMidi, rendered with sampled orchestral instruments. Music has its own level and switch, and pauses with the game. Music credits.
