The most difficult of the minigames. Your task is to carry the sphere over from the left to the right. The sphere moves only to the right, up and down, and always one step at one time, towards the destination.

What you see on the screen is a series of vertical lines, which are stops on your way to the other side. The thin gray lines are the safe spots. They also are the only ones which do not move. The remaining ones move constantly up or down. The sphere is also moving towards a given direction, which means that if you wait for too long, you may be caught by the red line on the edge of the display.

The red lines are the dangerous ones. After you touch to them, the sphere will appear back at the beginning. Your task is to put the sphere into the gray gap between the red lines and make it over onto the next line, before the sphere hits the edge of the screen. Note that the sphere is influenced by the direction and the speed with which the line moves. The gray lines are static so, the sphere moves in an ideal straight line. In the case of the moving lines, if moved, the sphere moves slightly in the direction, in which the line that it is leaving moves. For this reason, you may miss the safe spot and have to start over.

The crooked white lines turn into red ones, at the predefined intervals. Your task is to hop to them when they are white, and leave them before they turn red.

It does not matter which slot on the right is your destination. After you reach any of those, the minigame finishes.
