Tips and tricks
- 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.
- Combo systems reward patience: keep the chain alive with safe moves rather than reaching for risky bonuses.
- Restart early. If a run starts badly, do not grind it out; a fresh attempt costs nothing and saves your focus.
- Play in a quiet tab with nothing else running. Small frame drops cause missed timing that feels like bad luck but is not.
- Because this is a Train game, plan the switches before the train reaches them.
- Because this is a Stunts game, land level and land straight.
