Gunward: Five Rows Ahead

EVERY NUMBER IS A DEADLINE Your rig fires the whole time, at the wall in front of it in its lane. Each wall shows the seconds of your fire it needs. Each row shows the seconds until it reaches you. The wall in front opens only if its number runs out before its row's clock does. If it is still standing when its row arrives, the run ends, unless a Shield takes the hit. READ FIVE ROWS AHEAD Five rows are always in view, and your rig crosses about two lanes a second, so the lane you need three rows from now is the one you start toward now. The wall you are steering for tells you before you get there: CLEAN, with the seconds to spare, or SHORT, by how much. PAY THE TOLL, OR ROUTE AROUND IT Amber gates raise your damage, but they cost fire to open, and that fire comes out of the same few seconds. Armored walls need a Missile or a much stronger rig, so read them early and steer around. THE WARDENS About twenty seconds into Endless, the first Warden blocks the road: take the gate beside it for +2, or line up early and break the Warden for +4. Later Wardens come as classic, twin, guarded and Juggernaut fortresses. Spend a Missile, trigger a Breach, or save your Shield for the wall you cannot finish. SIX STRETCHES OF ROAD Drive from the blue Outskirts through Foundry District, Reactor Yard, Storm Belt and Frost Line to the Deep Road. Reduce Motion, sound and haptic settings let you choose the feel, and wall numbers can show hit points instead of seconds. THE FREE RANKED DAILY One attempt.
