What is Red-flag
Red-flag is a fast-paced arcade runner where you chase victory across a hazard-filled track. Grab flags to score, but don't get hit—one mistake ends the run.
How to Play
Use the arrow keys or on-screen controls to move your character left, right, and jump. Steer clear of obstacles while collecting red flags to maximize your run length and score.
Tips for Playing
- Look ahead to spot upcoming hazards early and plan your route before you reach them.
- Prioritize survival over risky flag grabs—it's better to live and score more later.
- Time your jumps carefully to avoid obstacles that move in patterns.
- Stay near the edges when possible to give yourself more reaction time.
- Watch how obstacles move—most follow predictable cycles, so learn their rhythm.
