The Captain is helping Lyra get away from her father, Aymas Xendrik. Enjoy a brand new mini-game and help Lyra sail to safety!

How it Works

Once getting up to date on the new dialogue, you will be able to play an all new mini-game, Lyra's Escape!

The object of the game is simple - dodge left and right, collecting coins and bubbles along the way. But don't be too confident, the waters are treacherous and there is debris you will have to avoid!

The game does have a small tutorial the first time you play but in case you need a refresher, you will move your boat using your left and right arrow keys on your keyboard (or tap if you are on mobile) in an attempt to dodge obstacles and collect coins/bubbles in the water.

However, the waters are unpredictable and may speed you up, or slow you down, depending on where you are. You shouldn't be caught off guard when this happens as it will warn you before a change in the water is about to happen.

Collect Avoid

There are a few safe things to pick up in the water like yellow and red coins for extra points, and bubbles to prevent one collision each time you pick one up. It is also safe to pick up the Zumagorn for a few seconds of invincibility, however, your boat will speed up quite a bit and it may be hard to control.

Hitting anything in the Avoid category will cause a loss of life or your game to end if you have not yet collected a bubble or have a Zumagorn activated.

Strategy

The best strategy to survive is to try and stay in the same lane so you can quickly dodge left or right (depending on where you choose), instead of having to move right/left twice in a row. This can be especially helpful when fast waters are approaching or if you need to quickly grab an item.

Secondly, it's important to remember that there is no achievement for having a high score, so do not worry if you cannot collect a tricky coin; it may be better to stay safe than risk going for it!

If you are still having difficulty, this game will work on your tablet or smartphone. Several users commented it was easier to control using their mobile devices instead of on their computers.
