Character specializations
Each character has a different boost and amounts of energy. For example, April O'Neal can climb out of pits easier, and has a boost to increase this ability. Dogpound has the most energy and highest defense.
Energy
You use energy with each step and lose even more after hitting objects or running into Foot soldiers. Collect the green energy orbs to gain additional energy. Tap the screen as soon as a target appears over them to avoid losing energy from Foot soldiers. Because your character is aiming at them, when you tap they will attack immediately. By doing this, you can also earn coins easily.
Street areas
When reaching the street, the view changes to 3D and survival is more difficult because you cannot jump. Try going off of every ramp unless you need to collect more energy. Because you cannot jump, focus on swiping back and forth and even in mid-air to avoid obstacles and Foot soldiers. When Foot soldiers jump on you, shake them off by swiping from side to side.
Various Game Hints
