What makes a good action game? Usually a satisfying rhythm once you learn the patterns, clear feedback on every hit or miss and short, intense rounds — and Shred and Crush has each of them in some measure. Playing it works your reaction time and reaction time, which is a large part of why the "one more round" feeling is so strong.

Tips and tricks
- When you die, note exactly what killed you. The answer is usually one specific pattern, and fixing that one thing is worth more than "trying harder".
- Learn the enemy or obstacle patterns before you try to go fast — most action games repeat a handful of behaviours, and once you recognise them the game slows down in your head.
- If there is a dash, jump or dodge move, treat it as a resource: use it to escape, not to attack, until you know the level.
- Sound is a cue. Many action games telegraph attacks with an audio effect a moment before the visual one — play with sound on when you are learning.
- Because this is a Zombie game, never let yourself get surrounded — always keep an exit behind you.
