Dumb Riders

The game tests a player's ability to decide when to stop and when to go, weighing the risk of continuing versus regaining their stranded riders. Players must monitor the travelers, managing their progress and timing to avoid unnecessary loss. While some landings can be fatal, eliminating a character entirely, others may only leave the player with extra burdens to bear, such as less than optimal speed or snagged elements that make traveling trickier.

Players may choose to ride cautiously or take bold steps, which can greatly impact the final outcome. One goal is to reach a destination safely without letting any riders go, but exceptions can be made for the sake of progress in certain situations.
