Tips and tricks
- Aim for consistency before you aim for records. A steady run that avoids mistakes usually scores higher than a flashy one that ends early.
- Take a short break after three or four failed runs. Arcade games punish tired eyes more than any other genre.
- Combo systems reward patience: keep the chain alive with safe moves rather than reaching for risky bonuses.
- Find the rhythm. Most arcade games have an underlying beat — taps, jumps or moves that fall on a regular interval — and once you feel it, your accuracy jumps.
- Because this is a Skills game, practise the hardest input in isolation before you attempt a full run.
