Your objective
Run as far as possible before a collision. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. The example below illustrates a decision.
From the start of a round
- Start auto-running.
- Jump approaching obstacles.
- Land in time for the next jump.
- Restart after a collision.
The controls to know
Jump button, game-area touch or keyboard jump. Start / pause and New round are available. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.
One way to understand the rules
Jump slightly before reaching the obstacle. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Keep the game’s format in mind.
Pay attention to this rule
Jumping without timing can land directly on the next obstacle. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
