Practice with a purpose

Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart. Refer to the controls when needed.

Understand the aim

  2. Steer around traffic.
  3. Avoid collisions.

How to use the 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. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.

Work through an example

Choose an empty lane early rather than passing through a car. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Keep the controls nearby.

Keep this in mind

This is arcade avoidance, not 3D vehicle simulation. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
