Do the tutorial. At the early part of your escape from the evil monkeys, you will undergo a short tutorial. Take this time to learn the basics of Temple Run. The controls are very simple swipes on the screen and some device tilting.

• To turn, swipe your finger in a quick, light motion in the direction you wish to go. Turn too slow, and you will run off the edge of the temple.
• To jump over tree stumps, ropes, fire, or gaps in the temple surface, swipe quickly upward in the same manner. This will give you a short, quick jump
• To slide under trees, fire, and ropes, slide your finger down in a quick, light manner.
• Tilt the device to the left or right to move your runner to one side of the screen or the other. This is necessary if you want to collect coins or if the temple surface is cut in half.
