Indian Player Strategies and Guides
Top 5 Tips from Indian Pros
Master the Tap Rhythm: For sprinting events, develop consistent tap timing rather than speed. Indian pros recommend 2 taps per second for optimal acceleration.
Leverage Festival Bonuses: During Diwali and Holi events, bonus coins and experience multipliers make these ideal times for progression.
Regional Gear Optimization: Certain equipment performs better in specific Indian climates. For example, lightweight gear excels in Chennai's humidity.
Community Training: Join regional training groups through the in-game community. Players from similar climates often share optimal strategies.
UPI Payment Timing: Top-up during afternoon hours (3-5 PM IST) when servers are least congested for instant credit.
