The Flash — About this game
The Flash turns super speed into a platform adventure with branching routes and a strict clock. The Trickster has seized Central City, and Tina McGee helps guide the search for him. Each area requires finding the switch that opens its exit, then reaching that exit in time. Jewels and other objects reward exploration, but detours must be weighed against the timer. Super-speed running and vibrating attacks spend a shared energy reserve, replenished at special food dispensers. Learn the route at a controlled pace, then accelerate where the ground is clear instead of sprinting blindly into traps.
