Meet All 5 Capy Run Characters: BO, MI, CAPY, Dragon & BOBA
Capy Run has five playable characters: BO and MI (free), CAPY the capybara (50 gems), the legendary Dragon (100 gems) and BOBA the milk tea (250 gems). Every character plays identically — unlocks are purely cosmetic, so there is no pay-to-win. This guide introduces each runner and how to get them.

BO & MI — the free duo
BO (blue, visor, serious about his splits) and MI (pink, always smiling) are unlocked from your very first run. They are modeled in the same chunky low-poly style as the rest of Capy Run's pastel city, and they are all you need to chase a high score — the paid characters add personality, not speed.
CAPY, Dragon & BOBA — the collectibles
Gems earned in-game (or bought in fair, optional packs) unlock the collectible tier. CAPY is the star of the game's name and the cheapest unlock at 50 gems. The Dragon is a fan favorite that appears on the game's feature art. BOBA — a walking cup of bubble tea — is the rarest and silliest runner at 250 gems.
Does any character run faster?
No. Characters in Capy Run are cosmetic only. Speed, jump height and slide timing are identical for all five runners, and difficulty scales only with distance. Your high score depends on reflexes, not purchases.
