Gameplay

In Beacon Race you race against the clock to collect as many beacons as you can before time runs out. Collecting a beacon adds fifteen seconds to your timer. If you are confident with your skills, you can also collect time bonuses from their tricky hiding spots for a massive thirty second bonus. Once the time runs out, it is game over.

On normal difficulty, you start from collecting only beacons near you at easy locations. You will be asked to collect beacons further away and harder to reach after you have collected more beacons. On hard difficulty however, even your very first beacon can be a far and difficult one.

In Time Attack your goal is to visit all 35 rooms and collect every beacon. While there is a timer, there is no time limit so you may take as long as you want to explore the map and master your skills.

This is a great game! It would be nice if there was an easy mode tho, maybe only collect some of the beacons for the time attack
