Tips & tactics

01One collision is fatal, so treat every sapphire as optional.
02Switch early. Tapping level with an obstacle is already too late.
03The twists follow patterns — after a few runs you will recognise the setups.
04Play in a smaller window if the speed is outrunning your eyes.

About Tap Road

Tap Road is the purest form of the one-input arcade game: no steering, no speed control, just a binary choice made at the right instant.

Sapphires collected on the road unlock new balls, which are cosmetic rather than easier.
