Tug-O-War is one of those games that is very frustrating when you don’t win and also one of those games where you will walk away with your fingers sore. Nether the less, it is one heck of a cool game.
Tug-O-War is tricky. Have you noticed that sometimes, you presses the foot keys very fast and to no avail, you don’t gain land but lose it? and sometimes, you press them slowly and you seem to gain land? Want to know why? Its very easy. Each key (the z the x key) are directly proportional to the foot movements of your character. Try it and see!
Therefore, with this in mind, it wouldn’t make sense if you pressed them (z x z x z x) too quickly because your character would simply not have enough time to push off the land. The longer you take, the more grip your character gets off the ground but beware, take too long and you will find yourself being pulled towards the river.
What I tend to do is alternatively press the keys (z x z x z x) in time to the music (4 presses (z x z x) every beat to the music. So it would be something like this.
Beat 1 (z x z x)
Beat 2 (z x z x)
And so forth, you get my drift don’t you? Hopefully, this will help you along your way to the top of the high score tables! – Shoyru_Lover
