How to play Rotating Bones
Press play and the first round teaches you the rest. The full control mapping is in the table below and takes a moment to skim. The game is wide rather than tall — fullscreen is worth it on a monitor, and on a phone the picture is much better sideways. If a round goes badly, restart — attempts are cheap and it is usually the fastest way to improve.
