Daily quests: how they work
- Every UTC day brings 4 quests, one of each tier: easy (50 XP), medium (90), hard (140) and expert (200). Never two that count the same thing, and at most one Time Attack quest. Everyone gets the same set that day.
- Reroll swaps a quest for another of its own tier. It costs one rewarded video (or a tap with Remove Ads), up to 3 every 8 hours. You lose the progress on the quest you swap; a finished quest cannot be rerolled.
- With all 4 done, NEW QUESTS appears: a whole new set for one video (or a tap), up to 2 times a day.
- Streak: finish 2 daily quests on a day and the streak gains a day, paying 5 XP per streak day, up to 70 XP. Miss a day and it starts again.
- A “qualifying run” is a run of Endless, the Daily Drift or Time Attack that reaches the results screen (Races count on their own). Quitting from pause does not count.
- You can also reroll a quest from the pause screen.
