The purpose of your moves
Travel five kilometres without losing all three lives. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Start with a deliberate move.
From the start of a round
- Start driving.
- Steer around traffic.
- Avoid collisions.
- Reach the distance target.
Keyboard and screen controls
Pointer, arrow keys or held Left/Right. Start / pause and New round are available. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.
Put the rules into context
Choose an empty lane early rather than passing through a car. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Verify the rule before continuing.
A common point of confusion
This is arcade avoidance, not 3D vehicle simulation. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
