How to play

Two thumbs, ninety seconds, thirteen hunts

Wolf Eclipse is simple to hold and hard to finish. Here is everything the game expects you to work out, written down.

Swipe to live

Left and right change lane. Up jumps. That is the entire control scheme, and by the third hunt you will not be thinking about it.

Take everything that glows

Gold is score and currency. Moon Crystals feed the Eclipse Meter. A clean run without a single hit builds a combo that multiplies both.

Spend the Eclipse well

A full meter fires on its own. For the length of it you cannot be stopped and gold pays double — so the dense stretch of trail you were dreading is exactly where you want it to land.

Chase the third star

Reaching the end is the first star. Meeting the hunt's objective is the second. The third is a mastery score, and it is meant to take several attempts.

Field the right wolf

Each wolf carries a power, a pack bonus and an ability. On a hunt thick with obstacles, Ashfang's dash through one of them is worth more than raw power is.

Buy supplies, not shortcuts

A Head Start opens the hunt 300m along. A Second Wind shrugs off your first hit. Both are paid for in Gold, and both run out.

Objectives

Every hunt asks for one specific thing

The objective is stated on the briefing before you commit, and it is checked by the same rule that describes it — so what you were promised and what you are graded on cannot drift apart.

TypeWhat it asks
