Tips and tricks

  • Do not memorise solutions, memorise principles. The level after this one will use the same idea in a new arrangement.
  • Read the whole board before your first move. In most puzzle games the first move is the most important one, and it deserves ten seconds of looking.
  • If you are stuck for more than a couple of minutes, step away and come back. Puzzle solutions often arrive when you stop forcing them.
  • Work backwards from the goal. Ask what the final state has to look like, then ask what the state before that must be.
  • Because this is a Action game, keep moving.
  • Because this is a Running game, look at the middle distance rather than right in front of you.
