Tips & Tricks
Scan 3-4 seconds ahead, not directly in front of the ball
Don't chase every gem. It's the #1 killer — gems respawn; high scores don't
The safe lane is usually the center. Only commit to an edge lane when the middle is clearly blocked
After about 60 seconds, deliberately slow down your tapping rhythm — calm players survive longer than frantic ones

Addicting game but the difficulty spike at around 60 seconds is INSANE. Still, those rare ball skins keep me coming back.
Best lane-switching game I've played since Subway Surfers. My 8-year-old and I compete for high scores every evening.
