You are a snail, and you are going on a journey down roads that none of your kind has ever ventured down. No you will not be 'sluggishly' dragging your way across obstacles and long stretches of pathways because that would be an agonising game to play. Instead you are moving at HIGH SPEED on a lost roller-skate! you will have to think fast to avoid dangerous obstacles, pass under and over objects when needed, similar to 'Snail Mail'.

You will start off with only 3 lanes to jump to and from. Each lane will have different obstacles to either duck under, jump over or dodge. There are also power ups randomly placed throughout the lanes such as 'speed boost' which makes you go faster than your average speed and will allow you to glide in the air if you come across a ramp will 'speed boost' is active, 'safety net' which removes all obstacles for a limited time without removing power-up items, 'time steady' which slows time allowing you to manoeuvre around, over or under obstacles with ease and 'coin count' which increases your chances of collecting coins by 100% for a limited time. You may have up to 2 power ups at any time. If you collect enough coins you will be able to purchase pre-power ups which can increase the chance of getting power ups, increase the length of time they last, and can also give you a catapult boost which throws you and your skate across a lengthy distance of road with out (a head start).
