Worldwide rankings use the CS17 Games shared leaderboard. Your local records remain available offline.
Achievements and unlocked rider heads are saved in this browser.
A short replay of the last recorded movements. The game is paused during playback.
New: Daily Challenge, Sudden Death, new arenas, Reverse (R), Slow Motion (F), Trail Eraser (T), saved presets, replay and personal records. Press Enter after Game Over for a quick restart.
Your goal: Outlast the other neon riders. Every rider leaves a solid trail behind them. Hitting a wall, obstacle, active hazard or a trail normally ends your run. You cannot reverse directly into your own trail.
Daily Challenge: fixed settings and a UTC daily seed, with a personal daily Top 10 saved on this device. Attract Mode: animated demo behind the opening menu. Unlocks: Lightning and Crown rider heads, Pulse and Electric trail effects. Mobile: larger touch buttons and landscape controls. Player Stats: distance, longest survival, most eliminations and favourite arena.
Trail Decay: older trail segments disappear after about 65 cells. Gauntlet, Ring and Gridlock: three more arena shapes, shown in the setup preview. Magnet (M): attract nearby packages for eight seconds. Forked Trail (G): place a short sideways trail. Emergency Escape: automatically saves you from one collision. Mystery Package: awards a surprise effect. Neon Events: optional Power Surge, Package Storm and Blackout. Combo eliminations: consecutive kills within eight seconds award bonus points. Earn XP and levels by collecting packages, winning and eliminating rivals.
Open Top 10 Scores to choose a game mode, view worldwide scores, or submit a finished run using a nickname. Online scores require the shared CS17 Games score service and the six Neon Trails game identifiers enabled in its configuration. Daily Challenge online rankings are all-time until server-side date filtering is added; your daily personal results still reset each UTC day.
Packages appear at random clear locations. Computer opponents can also collect packages and use their abilities; smarter behaviour is more noticeable on higher difficulties.
Choose Rectangle, Cut Corners, Crossroads, Donut, Twin Chambers, Maze or a random arena. Select a small, medium, large or progressively expanding playing area. The dimmed region beyond the glowing border is outside the playable arena. Obstacles and warning-then-active laser gates can be adjusted in setup.
Earn points by surviving, completing round challenges, collecting bonuses and winning. The dashboard shows kills, wins, score, Turbo energy, shields, stored abilities and opponents. Achievements unlock extra rider-head designs such as Star and Comet. The Top 10 scores and unlocks are saved in this browser, not an online leaderboard.
Tip: Start with a small Classic arena on Easy or Normal. Use Turbo to escape open spaces, but save your Trail Breaker or Ghost ability for a tight corner.
