10. Keep an Eye Out for Items During a Stage Run

• Jetpacks and Magnets are two items that can be found lying around on platforms during a run. Be sure to get them – the Jetpack can boost you up by 12 platforms and the Magnet will pull all coins shown on the screen towards you for 13 seconds.

• You can get 50 coins for free every 30 minutes at the shop. All you have to do is watch a short 30-seconds long video ad and they’ll be given to you right away.


12. Special Platforms

• Be wary of special platforms! Although some (Trampoline and Spring) are helpful and will boost you up, others (ON/OFF Sign, Broken Wood, Frying Pan, and Green Sticky Booger) are dangerous platforms to step onto. The Spring Platform boosts you up by five platforms. The Trampoline Platform boosts you up by 10 platforms. Here’s what happens when you encounter an ON/OFF Platform – you’re clear to step on it when it’s turned ON, but avoid it if it’s turned OFF.

• As for the Frying Pan Platform, you’re clear to step on it when the fire is turned off, but you should avoid it if the fire is on. The Broken Wood Platform lets you jump on it at any time, but you should jump away from it quickly as it will break after 1.5 seconds. And finally, there’s the Green Sticker Booger Platform – you’ll get stuck after jumping onto it, but you can escape its sticky grasp just by double tapping.
