Tips and tricks
- Take a short break after three or four failed runs. Arcade games punish tired eyes more than any other genre.
- Learn the first thirty seconds perfectly. The opening is the same every time, so it should never be where you lose.
- Restart early. If a run starts badly, do not grind it out; a fresh attempt costs nothing and saves your focus.
- Combo systems reward patience: keep the chain alive with safe moves rather than reaching for risky bonuses.
- Because this is a Webgl game, enable hardware acceleration in your browser settings if it stutters.
