FAQ

FAQ

How do I know if I made it or I'm late?

If you step into the elevator before 09:00:00, you made it; after that, you're late. More than 6 minutes early is Early bird, more than 2 minutes early is Made it, anything closer is Just made it, and over 5 minutes late is Very late.

How does time work in the game?

Each real second is 10 seconds on the commute clock. A bump costs 15 seconds (25 with your manager), a closed train door 1:30, a turnstile 15 seconds and a security gate 20 seconds, and slowing down costs time too. A clean run takes just over a minute.

What do coffee and earbuds do?

Coffee makes you 1.45× faster for 3.5 seconds. Earbuds keep bumps from costing time for 4.5 seconds, but they can't get you through closed doors or gates. On the transfer stairs, the escalator lane is fast and the stairs are slow.

Are the subway lines or companies real?

No. All stations, lines and companies are fictional, and the graphics are pixel art drawn in the game. Only your earliest on-time arrival is saved as your best, in this browser only.
