Tips and tricks
- 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.
- Take a short break after three or four failed runs. Arcade games punish tired eyes more than any other genre.
- Play in a quiet tab with nothing else running. Small frame drops cause missed timing that feels like bad luck but is not.
