| Fire Rides

Fire Rides is one of the latest addictive games to be smashing its way onto iOS and Android, and we can’t stop swinging our balls about.

Flying through the angular tunnels of Fire Rides we guide a single firey ball through some targets, and while we were there, we’ve noted down some helpful tips for you to take note of.

Follow our advice below and you’ll soon be a Fire Rides master.

Terrific trajectory

While swinging from the ceiling, the most important strategy you should keep in mind is when to let go of the swing.

Of course, the different times you let your ball swing will affect the amount of height and speed the ball will travel at. Using small swings, you can keep the ball at a fairly even level for a long period of time.

The later you let go, the higher the ball will travel, and the earlier you let go, the more straight and speedy it’ll fly.

Valuable foresight

If you cast your eyes to the background of Fire Rides, you can actually see well into the foggy distance, but more importantly, you can see what’s coming.

Basically, because of the camera angle the game gives you, you’ll be able to see whether the path ahead stays straight or goes either down or up by looking in the background to the right on the screen.

This’ll be a massive help if, more than anything, you want to just keep travelling forward.

Dead centre

Those targets are the easiest way to score big points, and of course, you’ll want to aim for their centre, not their white outsides.

Smashing through the centre will earn you 2 points, and doing it consecutively will earn you an extra point each time until you’re earning 5 points for each target.

Keep your streak up and you’ll see your points soar quickly.

Know thy target

There’s more than one kind of target, while early on you’ll be met with the stationary kind, you’ll soon find others.

Some swing on a rope from the ceiling, others are oval shaped and their centre moves, and others even move away from you - you can tell those apart as they sparkle a bit when moving.

Getting used to the movement of each target will greatly help your ability to smash them apart and score big points.

Goodness gracious great balls of fire

Of course, this is Fire Rides, and therefore you know you’re succeeding if you’ve got a great big ball of fire.

This is simple, burning your way through Fire Rides will expand your firey presence and you’ll blaze a trail of smoke and flame through the game if you keep hitting the centre of those targets.
