๐ก Tips & Tricks
- Trace the map all the way through: tunnels cross over each other, so don't choose a path without tracing it with your eye to the very end
- Don't be fooled by the short route: the tunnel that looks shortest usually leads to an obstacle, while the long way is often the safe one
- Count the obstacles: seeing how many obstacles sit on each route beforehand reveals which tunnel is clean
- Restart when you get stuck: the levels are very short, so trying again takes only seconds
- Check the achievements: some achievements require trying a different route, which makes replaying worthwhile
