UGLY RUN Is Live: One Test Week, and the Top 10 Win an Efrog Each
The efrogs team has released UGLY RUN, a free browser runner starring the UGLY dog, and is opening it with a one-week public test. Players who post a run on X get on the board; the top 10 at the end of the week each win an efrog. More on the project's plans is due after the test. Press release, with a disclosure.
Disclosure: the Ledger's publisher, Shama, is the founder of efrogs, the team behind UGLY. This is that team's press release, and the terms are its own.
UGLY RUN, a free endless runner starring the dog from UGLY, the meme coin the efrogs team is preparing for Robinhood Chain, is live at uglyonrobinhood.com/run. It plays in the browser on a phone or a desktop, with nothing to install, no wallet to connect and nothing to sign. The dog runs through a city, a snow mountain, a desert and a swamp, jumps hydrants, barks rats off the road and collects coins. The first stretch of track after the city belongs to efrogs.
One week of testing, one prize
The team is opening the game with a public test week that ends on 22 September 2026 at 23:59 UTC. The prize is simple: the ten highest-ranked players on the game's board at the end of the week each receive an efrog, the team's own Ethereum Frogs NFT, one per player.
Getting on the board takes three steps, done once. Play a run. Press the button that opens X with a ready-made post carrying the score and a short code. Paste the link of that post back into the game and press verify. From then on every new best run updates the player's place automatically; there is no need to post again. The player types a wallet address as text, and that is all the game knows about them.
Prizes are awarded after a review for duplicate wallets, duplicate devices and tampered scores, and the team calls every position provisional until then. Admins of the project's Telegram will never send the first message in a private chat, never ask anyone to connect a wallet, and never send an address.
What the week is for
The team wants players to test the game on their own phones and desktops and to send feedback, bugs and ideas to the project's Telegram group, so that the version that follows is shaped by the people who play it. It has said only that more announcements about the project's plans, including how the UGLY launch itself will work, follow after the test week. This desk will report them when they are made.
