What counts as success
Run as far as possible before a collision. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Keep the controls in easy reach.
A walkthrough of the rules
- Start auto-running.
- Jump approaching obstacles.
- Land in time for the next jump.
- Restart after a collision.
Keyboard and screen controls
Jump button, game-area touch or keyboard jump. Start / pause and New round are available. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Look at the feedback after the action.
Put the rules into context
Jump slightly before reaching the obstacle. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Keep the game’s format in mind.
