The Aurora Trail

How to Play

• Everyone gets the same tundra maze every day. It resets at 00:00 UTC, for everyone, at once.
• Move the brass dot (you) to the teal dot (exit) — only a small radius of fog around you is ever visible, and it doesn't stay charted once you move away.
• Warmth drains with every step. If it hits zero, you collapse and restart this attempt from the trailhead — your streak and best time are safe, but the run itself is lost. Watch the bar.
• Your fox can hop clean over a wall — arm Fox Jump, then press the direction of the wall you want to clear. It costs more warmth than an ordinary step, and you only get a couple of jumps per attempt, so save them for the walls that really cost you a detour. Pressing a direction with nothing blocking it just moves you normally, no charge spent.
• Once you've solved a day, your fastest run leaves ghost tracks in the snow on later attempts that day — race your own best line.
• The maze gets bigger and colder through the week — Monday's the easiest, Sunday's the hardest.
• Pick a level, Beginner through Extreme, on top of that. Higher levels shrink your fog radius, add more junctions, and grow the map — same day, same level, same maze (and same ghost trail) for everyone who picks it.
• Use arrow keys or swipe to move.
• Come back daily to build your streak.
