MAX the MASSIVE

  • The object of the game is to score as high as possible before the timer runs out. Score is determined by the total number of biomes visited plus the amount of money in your account, and is calculated when the timer reaches 0:00.

CONTROLS

  • Slide the train handle up and down to control your speed. The hotter your engine is burning, the faster your maximum attainable speed. Braking while going fast will also heat up your engine. If your engine reaches 100%, it will explode!
  • Click the coal pile to add pieces of coal, which heat up your engine over time and then burn out.
  • Click the water pump to douse a piece of coal.

TRAIN CARS

  • Near the end of every biome is a town. Come to a complete stop at a town to shop for new train cars. A car can't be sold at the same shop it was bought at.Cars add mass to MAX, which makes speeding up and slowing down harder. 
  • Coal and water cars increase the rate at which your engine room gains coal and water. Coal and water cars can be bought and sold for different amounts in different biomes. Hover over them in the main game area for prices. 
  • Diamond cars gain value the more biomes they visit while on your train, but also gain mass with each visit. Hover over them in the main game area to see their current value and mass.

BIOMES

  • Entering a biome adds $1 to MAX's money.
  • Desert heats up your engine faster.
  • Snow cools your engine down and decreases braking ability.
  • Mountain decreases your acceleration but increases your braking ability.
  • Ocean increases your inner peace.
