There is very little to learn before your first run. Load the game above and it fills the player in portrait. On a phone you can play one-handed; on desktop the frame stays centred so nothing is cropped. If a round goes badly, restart — attempts are cheap and it is usually the fastest way to improve.

On mobile: Tap and swipe directly on the screen. The game is built for portrait, so you can play one-handed without rotating your phone.
