Challenge Rules:

1. Video and Audio Requirements: Runs must include video footage with game audio and be recorded at a minimum of 30 frames per second.

3. Platform: Runs may be performed on Web or TouchWeb versions of the game.

9. Run Verification: All runs must be verified to ensure they comply with the rules outlined here and will be reviewed by Speedrun.com moderators and staff.
