How to play Radar
You can work the whole thing out by playing it. Keep a hand on the arrow keys / WASD; everything else is listed in the controls table. Portrait layout: hold the phone the way you normally do, or play it centred in the page on desktop. Expect the first attempt to be a write-off; that is normal here.
Controls
| Input | Action |
|---|---|
| Mouse | Navigate menus and interact |
| Arrow keys / WASD | Move |
| Spacebar | Primary action |
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.
