Tips and tricks
- Do not compare your first hour to someone's hundredth. Casual games are built to be learned in public, one small improvement at a time.
- Read the on-screen prompts once. Most casual games explain their entire control scheme in the first ten seconds and never again.
- Watch your own replays or failed attempts critically: the same mistake usually repeats three times before you notice it.
- Full-screen mode makes a real difference to precision. Use the button beneath the game.
- Because this is a Endless game, consistency beats bravery — a safe lane held for a long time outscores risky bonuses.
- Because this is a Running game, look at the middle distance rather than right in front of you.
