The in-game screen lists the exact keys or buttons before the first level.

Tips & Tricks

  • Do not chase points in the first thirty seconds. Survive, learn the rhythm, and the score takes care of itself.
  • Learn the pattern before you try to beat it. Almost every failure in this kind of game comes from reacting too early rather than too late.
  • If two players are sharing a keyboard, agree on the control split before the round starts - most disputes come from one player accidentally using the other's keys.
  • Short, repeated attempts beat long sessions. Ten quick restarts will teach you more than one careful run.
