Soundtrack

• The BPM is 190 from 0%- 48%
• The BPM is 180 from 48%- 100%.
• In 3/4 Time signature.
• The soundtrack for The Sailor's Tale was composed Łukasz Michalski.

Difficulty

• There may be a lag at the start where the line falls off and cannot reach the red path.
• It can be very hard to get to the first crown, because the path is obscured by the boxes.
• From 22% to ~33%, you have to concentrate on the strings' rhythm before it fades out and maintain it.
• The lag in both Android and iOS devices naturally makes the level even harder.
• When the camera goes too close in the cube part, the camera can possibly stop moving, because it will report to you that you lost.
• Once you clear the ship and descend, the level will become easier.
• When it is near the end, you have to triple tap 3 times. It may catch you off-guard.
• When the Kraken waves its tentacles, water droplets will appear on the screen for a brief moment, distracting your view. (This won't happen when you set your graphics to low, and it used to be ink droplets)

Difference between 2 devices

iOS

• The blackout is later than Android.
• On the ship, when comes to the wood floor falling in the middle, the device would be more laggy than on Android.

Android

• The blackout is earlier when the cube falls out.

Strategy

• Turn the quality down to reduce the chances of lag and special effects.
• Listen to the violins. They are the key to guiding your path.
• Maintain your tapping from 22% until the other ship collides into your current ship. If you lose your pattern, you will fail.
• Recently with The Racing update guides were added to all levels(Excluding Racing) making this level much easier
