Question

Sometimes there are gold balls on the tracks - what are they?

Community Answer

Just a few coins. They look like a gold ball, because there are more coins at the place. If you grab them, you'll get coins as usual.

Question

How do I play with multiple players?

Community Answer

Unfortunately, it is not possible to play Subway Surfers with multiple people at this time. If your friends play Subway Surfers, you can always compare each others' scores and try to beat them.

How can I make my surfer jump extra high?

The Super Sneakers powerup allows you to jump much higher than normal. You can use this to jump from the ground to the top of a train.

What does the 2 mean in Subway Surfers?

That's a 2x multiplier, which will double whatever your current score multiplier is. Use this powerup to rake in big points.

Question

How do I jump onto the rails or roofs?

Ruby

Top Answerer

If you are on something that is in the air (like the jetpack), when you drop there is a chance you might land on a roof and get to rub on top of it for a bit. Otherwise, the only way to get onto a roof is if you are wearing Super Sneakers, and there is a parked train in front of one of the lower down roofs. To get on to the roof, you jump on the train and then onto the roof with the sneakers.

Is it true that tapping a mystery box with five fingers, then releasing them one by one gives four different prizes?

Unicorn Fangirl

Community Answer

No, each mystery box only has one item. If you want more prizes from a mystery box, there will be a "Double Up!" button that you click to double the number of items you get.

Question

How do I get more money?

Ruby

Top Answerer

Picking up magnets can help. Jetpacks also offer a good amount of coins. Completing missions can help too, but really, the easiest way to get more coins is just through judgement. Choose paths with more coins, this might include taking risks.

Question

What are the purple bouncy things and how do I use them?

Bill Jelen

Community Answer

They only happen on Monday. It reveals one of these for about 10 seconds: Random Board, Double Coins, or Double Jump. The Double Jump is a strange power-up: first, all of your jumps are not as high as usual. But, you can jump twice in succession and get slightly higher than without the power up. If you've already bought double-coins for $4.99, then the purple bouncy mystery icons are not as useful (although the Random Board will save you if you happen to crash during the short time the board is active).
