- Learn the first thirty seconds perfectly. The opening is the same every time, so it should never be where you lose.
- Because this is a Christmas game, seasonal games often have hidden bonuses in the decorations.
- Because this is a Arcade game, restart early when a run goes wrong instead of grinding out a poor score.
