What Is Cowboy Safari?
Cowboy Safari is a browser-based endless runner where you play as a cowboy who lassos wild animals, rides them mid-sprint, and adds tamed creatures to your floating sky zoo. You'll jump between buffalo, zebras, elephants, and lions while avoiding crashes and managing each animal's patience meter. Once tamed, animals join your zoo collection and earn money from visitors, which funds habitat upgrades and exploration. It's perfect for anyone who loves arcade action mixed with light management mechanics and animal collecting.
Why It's Popular
The mix of reflex-based riding and zoo-building creates a satisfying loopâevery successful tame feels earned, and upgrading your zoo makes progress visible. Switching animals mid-run keeps gameplay frantic, and each creature's unique bucking pattern demands split-second timing. The floating zoo concept is quirky and memorable, making it easy to share clips of chaotic animal-hopping moments.
