After a crash the result screen shows your score, best score and coins; press the home button or the replay button.

## What you see on screen

- **Start screen:** your car on the road, a sound button, a music button, a car button and PLAY, with the best score and total coins at the top.
- **While driving:** HOME, SCORE (with a multiplier), SPEED and DISTANCE, and your coin count.
- **Result screen:** Score, Best Score, Coins Collected and two buttons.

## Tips

- The up arrow did not change the speed. In our runs the readout stayed at 20 km/h for the first 18 seconds, with or without it.
- Be patient; the speed rose later. In one longer run it climbed to 36 and then 45 km/h and the score gained a multiplier.
- Stay clear of the other vehicles; in that longer run a bus ended the run at about 1.1 kilometers.
