The world of Vex 3 is full of constant danger. Your objective is to navigate through the map, avoiding traps as you progress through different levels or acts. Each act presents puzzles that you must solve to complete the level. While some traps are relatively easy to dodge with well-timed jumps, rolls, or evasive maneuvers, others require quick thinking and precise movements. Controlling your stickman character is simple, using either the WASD keys or the arrow keys.
The traps you encounter come in various forms. Some traps move, while others remain stationary. Before attempting to pass through moving traps, make sure to take a moment to observe their patterns and plan your actions accordingly. Many traps may require multiple attempts to overcome, which is where checkpoints become crucial. Flagpoles scattered throughout the levels serve as checkpoints, allowing you to respawn at your active checkpoint. Remember, only one checkpoint can be active at a time.
In some acts, you'll need to find keys to unlock doors and progress further. Obtaining these keys won't be easy, so stay alert and pay attention to your surroundings. Completing the 10 standard stages is your initial goal, but if you're up for an even greater challenge, Vex 3 offers 9 exciting challenge stages to test your skills.
