Setting up the lane…

What this step asks

Repeat a pattern of 8 tiles on the Easy level. The run opens with 3 tiles and every correct round adds one, so 6 correct rounds take you there. You have 14 rounds and 3 lives; a miss takes a tile off the next pattern and costs you rounds to climb back.

The numbers behind the target

  • Opening pattern: 3 tiles on a 3×3 grid, on show for 1110 ms.
  • Target pattern: 8 tiles on a 5×5 grid, on show for 1460 ms (70 ms more for every extra tile).
  • The grid grows on the way, so the target pattern is spread over more squares than the opening one.
  • Rounds to spare for slips: 8 of 14.

Before you start

Halfway up, slips cost more than slowness. Aim for a clean run before a quick one.

The run code fixes the tasks, so every retry is the same course. What you learned on the last attempt still applies.
