Fish Leap Rings game guide
Goal of the game
In Fish Leap Rings you play with your face and head movements. Your fish swims through the sea on your camera. OPEN your MOUTH to leap out of the water — keep it open longer for a higher jump. Fly through the glowing rings for points and over the snapping crabs.
Close your mouth to dive back down. Grab power-ups in the air!

- Sit facing the camera with your whole face in view; Fish Leap Rings reads your nose position, blinks and mouth on your own device.

Scoring and levels
Points in Fish Leap Rings come from the code-defined rewards of 20 points for different actions, so the bigger moves are worth chasing.

Your best score is saved in your browser, and signed-in players also appear on the Fish Leap Rings leaderboard.

- With a Shield active, play aggressively in Fish Leap Rings; the next mistake is free.
- Good, even lighting from the front makes tracking in Fish Leap Rings far more reliable than a bright window behind you.
