When Squeektoshi is running, every race becomes a Night Race with more snacks on the track. If he completes a block while you race, a Block Drop lands in both halves of the wheel and gives you a bolt back.

How to play

WASD works too. On a phone, swipe.

Three energy bolts

Every bump costs one bolt. With none left your hamster is too tired to go on and sits down to rest. Last hamster running wins.

Hideout → change lane

Wooden hideouts are too tall to jump. Run into one and it costs a bolt.

Cork log → jump

A cork log across the lane. Jump it or go round.

Bridge → slide

A bendy wooden bridge at head height. Slide under it.

Chew ball → get out of the way

A seagrass ball rolls down the wheel at you. Change lanes before it reaches you.

Mini wheel

Ride it: you run faster, and it takes one bump for you before it breaks.

Hamster ball

Roll straight over logs and under bridges. It pops on the first hideout or chew ball instead of you.

Snacks

Sunflower seeds, broccoli, courgette and mealworms: the real hamster's menu. Eat enough of them for a bolt back.

Block Drop

Live only: when the real hamster completes a Squeekchain block, a cyan block lands on both sides of the wheel. It gives a bolt back.

Your rival runs right next to you, on the other side of the line down the middle, so you always see who is ahead. The wheel keeps getting faster, and after a minute and a half both hamsters start tiring on their own, so every race ends with a winner. Every few hundred metres the camera switches between day and the infrared night camera, like the real stream.

Get into a race

  1. Connect your walletAny browser wallet works, such as MetaMask, Rabby or Coinbase Wallet. We switch it to Sepolia, and add the network if it's missing.
  2. Quick match or a roomJoin the queue, or create a room and send the link to a friend.
  3. RunSame track, same time. The last hamster still running wins. The wheel never stops speeding up, so somebody always tires first.
  4. Dropped out?Your hamster keeps running without you, so come back fast. If it runs out of energy before you return, your rival wins.

Fair play & your wallet

The server is the referee

Your browser only sends key presses. The server replays your race from them with the same engine, so nobody can fake speed or a finish.

A course nobody picks

The server locks in a hidden seed before the race and both players add their own. After the finish your browser checks the course really came from them.

Bots don't rank

The track shows up only a few seconds ahead, and the server times how fast you react to each obstacle. Reactions faster or steadier than any human's keep a race off the leaderboard.

Your wallet stays yours

Signing in is a free, readable message. We never ask for approvals or transactions to play, and we never see your keys. Each sign-in works once and expires in 10 minutes.

Races for SQK

Both players put the same amount of test $SQK into a match contract before the race. The winner takes the pot, minus a fixed 5% fee. Pick a table (10, 50, 250 or 1000 SQK) for a quick match, open a room for a friend, or take an open challenge.

  • Win: the contract pays the pot to the winner.
  • Rival leaves and their hamster runs out of energy: you win.
  • A dead heat, or the match never starts: both stakes go back.
  • The server goes silent: after a deadline, you can take your stake back yourself.

Runs on the Sepolia testnet: test $SQK and test ETH have no real-world value. You need a little Sepolia ETH for network fees. Nobody, not even the site owner, can take a stake: the contract only pays the two players, and the owner can only withdraw the 5% fees.
