Grey packs can be earned at any moment by watching video advertisements. Golden packs are offered regularly after a certain time. The game is free-to-play with advertisements and in-app purchases to remove the ads and buy grey and golden packs. The game regularly provides grey and golden packs that contain variations and new outfits for the characters, such as a being a pirate or a samurai, or walking around with an exoskeleton or wearing a tiny hat.
The game keeps track of the best distances. If the player is not able to keep the character up, it falls down and the game is over. A later update added the horse character with a different type of movement as it has a very long body and needs to hop. Players also need to take into account the stance to alternate between the legs to maintain momentum.
Each tap switches between the legs, so a certain rhythm needs to maintained. The player has to control a ragdoll character, standing on two very long and thin legs, making it walk. Daddy Long Legs is a quirky and challenging platformer game where players take control of a Daddy Long Legs arthropod, navigating through a variety of obstacles and enemies to reach the end of each level. Daddy Long Legs is a physics based movement game similar to QWOP.
