Glass Smash Run game guide
Goal of the game
In Glass Smash Run you play with taps, swipes and drags. You glide down a neon crystal tunnel. TAP anywhere to throw a steel ball exactly there. Smash the glass walls before they hit you, and shatter the blue CRYSTALS for +5 balls each.
Smash ghosts too! Run out of balls = game over. Hit floating power-ups with a ball (or let them reach you) for Triple balls, Slow-mo, Shield, Double points and Blast. Close-call smashes trigger SLOW-MO! Mouse click works on PC.
