Description
Poos Caboose is a one-tap arcade game for the browser, iPhone, and iPad about a cat named Poos hopping between cabooses on a moving train. Play it now in any modern browser. Every landing scores, consecutive perfect landings multiply coin earnings up to 5×, and a miss ends the run. The roster has 13 cats: Poos is included, and the other 12 unlock with coins earned in-game.
Classic runs sit alongside a seeded daily challenge, missions and achievements, world leaderboards, and optional races against the daily champion's ghost.
Originally released in 2018 and featured by the App Store in 154 countries, the game was rebuilt from the ground up in 2026. The browser version is live now, and the iOS app is coming back.
One-liner
"Hop cabooses. Unlock pooses."
History
Poos Caboose began in 2018 as a solo project and was featured by the App Store in 154 countries at launch. After several years off the store, the original developer rebuilt the entire game in 2026 — same gameplay and characters, modern engine underneath — and added perfect-landing combos, daily challenges, missions, achievements, a no-account world leaderboard, and ghost races.

Things journalists have asked us
Is "pooses" the real plural? In this house, yes.
Why no accounts or logins? Because nobody has ever wanted to create an account to play a 90-second cat game. The leaderboard starts with a generated Poos-themed nickname that players can change.
Is the mystery character really a secret? Yes. It appears at 100,000 coin, whether the coin was earned in-game or added through an optional coin pack.
