Nutmeg Express is a fast-paced, endless soccer runner where style matters as much as survival. You control a lone footballer sprinting down the pitch, swerving between defenders and pulling off perfectly timed nutmegs by slipping the ball cleanly through their legs to rack up huge scores.

How It Plays

The pitch is divided into lanes, and defenders rush toward you in ever-increasing waves. You dodge left and right to stay alive, but the real points come from courage and timing. Line up your shot just right and fire the ball through a defender’s legs for a satisfying nutmeg.

You are not limited to straight shots. With precise analog control, you can bend the ball left or right, letting skilled players thread difficult angles and keep their scoring streak alive.

Controls

By default, the game uses simple keyboard controls:

  • A moves left

  • D moves right

  • Space shoots the ball

All controls can be remapped in the Options menu to suit your preferred setup.

Score Big with Style

Every successful nutmeg builds your score multiplier. Chain them together quickly and you can climb all the way up to a 10× bonus. Hesitate for too long, and the multiplier drops back to zero, so staying aggressive is key.

Know Your Defenders

Not every opponent is worth challenging:

  • Wide stance defenders leave big gaps and are perfect nutmeg targets

  • Narrow stance defenders are tightly closed, and attempting a nutmeg is a mistake

  • Shuffling defenders constantly change their stance, rewarding sharp reactions and timing

Learning when to attack and when to evade is essential for survival.

Increasing Pressure

The longer you last, the tougher it gets. Defenders appear faster, formations become more crowded, and the overall game speed ramps up. One bad read can put you in danger, but all is not lost. If you collide with a defender’s tackle zone, you get a brief chance to recover with a sliding tackle. Pull it off and the run continues. Miss it and it is game over.

The Goal

There is no finish line, only the chase for a higher score. Stay alive, chain nutmegs, master ball control, and see how long you can survive on the pitch.
