Cheetah Technology has released a sequel to the well-received Rolling Sky. The original saw you take control of a ball cascading through moving platforms in the sky. The second iteration sees a more thoughtful and altogether more polished game as they replace abstract geometry with gorgeous scenery. I may sound like I am gushing over this game, but Rolling Sky 2 really is a gorgeous example of mobile gaming.

Tips and Tricks

Rolling Sky 2 is a beautiful auto-runner where you have to time your movements to the beat to ace the levels. Each level varies between 30 seconds to a couple of minutes and you will need superb reflexes in order to nail these levels.

  • Move to the beat. If you are a perfectionist like me, then you will need stunning reflexes to grab the items in one go. The most likely situation you’ll face is trial and error to learn where the pickups hop to.
  • Learn the levels. It’s possible that while playing Rolling Sky 2, you move instinctively to the beat. However, if you are not feeling at one with music, then I recommend just getting through the levels. Once you have passed a level, you will find it easier to go back and pick up those three stars.
  • Listen to your instincts. The more you play this game the more you catch on to the tricks and trip-ups designed to catch you out. Paths that seem viable disappear right in front of your feet, so be prepared to make last-second dives. Once you can predict trip-ups, the levels become easier.
  • Practice. As with any game like Rolling Sky 2, there is trial and error needed in order to pass levels. You can watch videos or buy gems to get revive tokens, but sometimes you got to know when to save your revive chips.
  • Look out for music icons. In the menu screen, there are music icons that dance around your screen. If you tap onto this dancing icon, you can claim a gem for free. You can then get a bonus for watching an advert if you are trying to maximise your gems.
  • Enjoy the symphony. I have said it before, but I will say it again. This game is gorgeous, there is charm sewn into every level and a good degree of challenge. Remember to enjoy it, the minute you get angry or frustrated you should move on and come back to this.
