Spot the early lock

If a move forces two paths to compete for the same square, reset before you go deeper.

Avoid sunk cost

A fast restart beats minutes of forced moves that end in a dead end.

Use a three move rule

If you cannot see the next three moves, pause and re-evaluate instead of forcing it.

Quick takeaways

  • Restart quickly when a lane loses its only exit.
  • Save retries by testing a short alternative first.
  • Use the guide video to confirm the pivot move.
