Our take on Shiba Army
The page foregrounds a dozen maps and special powers, but gives little detail about how those elements change a run. Its clearest account is a single escalating loop of dodging hazards, collecting coins, and chasing a high score.
What is Shiba Army?
Shiba Army is a runner in which a Shiba Inu travels along an imaginary route toward the moon.
The goal is to avoid obstacles, gather coins, and reach a high score. The character moves faster with each passing second, increasing the difficulty; some obstacles can take coins or end a round. Scores can appear on a leaderboard. Coins can be spent in an in-game store, where new items are added. The game lists 12 maps, special powers, a life system, and Discord Rich Presence. Its maps draw on real-world places. The store page also mentions features planned for a final version, so those should not be confused with the gameplay and features described as available.
