Tips for playing Subway Surfers City for beginners

Don’t forget to check the quest section

The Missions section of the game is definitely the most rewarding arena in any mobile game, and Subway Surfers City is no exception as you can get a lot of in-game resources including Coins, Keys, Experience Points and even new Surfers. Every day when you log into the game, the first thing you should do is check the Missions section to see daily missions. When you reach Level 3, the Mission section will be unlocked.

The Missions section in the game includes two tabs: Rookie Missions & Daily Missions (Rookie Missions and Daily Missions). The Daily Mission section is unlocked after level 6, and includes easy-to-complete challenges, such as collecting a certain amount of Coins/magnets during play or achieving a target score while playing. If you check this in advance, it will allow you to plan your rounds accordingly for the day.

If you’re new to Subway Surfers City, don’t worry, you’ll be rewarded with a decent amount of XP to quickly climb to level 6. So, take advantage of this section. Most of the challenges in Rookie Missions are easy to complete without even realizing it while playing the game. Visit this section as soon as it is unlocked to receive a worthy reward.

Upgrade characters whenever possible

Just like in the regular Subway Surfers game, you start with Jake, the only surfer. As you start progressing through the levels, you’ll collect more characters through rewards and Super Boxes. Upgrading the surfer will increase their Experience points, allowing them to level up.

Of course, upgrading characters always requires a certain amount of coins. Upgrading is necessary as it will increase their playing time by enhancing their performance. When you start playing, the surfer will run slower. However, the player’s speed will increase tenfold as the game progresses. Therefore, upgrade your players whenever possible to let them unlock and upgrade special abilities.

Equip yourself with hoverboards whenever possible

While playing, in addition to the coins and magnets available in regular Subway Surfers, you will also receive some Blue Energy items along the way. Even if they are on parallel tracks, switch tracks if possible to collect them. Every time you collect a certain number of items, the hoverboard will be activated. You can touch it for the character to use. The hoverboard can help you move more smoothly on the tracks and collect more rewards along the way.

Additionally, if you collide with an obstacle/train while equipping the hoverboard, the game will not end and all obstacles/trains will be cleared within the next 50-100 meters. Most people think they will save their hoverboards to use them later in the game when the speeds are faster.

However, until you use the hoverboard, all Blue Energy items you collect while the hoverboard is active will be disabled. You can always charge and reactivate your hoverboard by collecting these Energy items after you’ve used them.

Learn about Surfer’s abilities before starting the game

Please note that each surfer has a unique personality/characteristics. To make good use of their personality, you must plan your games around that trait. Since Jake is the default starting character, let’s take Jake as an example.

Let’s say you’re playing with Jake, this surfer has two special personalities: Magnetic and Wheehead. Magnetic ensures that whenever you equip him a hoverboard is activated. If you try to collect magnets from the same rail or parallel rails during the time the skateboard is active, the lifetime of the magnet will increase and you can use the magnet to attract coins from parallel rails for a longer period of time.

With the Wheelhead personality, you can extend the life of your fully charged hoverboard with each coin you collect. You can also unlock new characteristics for players by upgrading them. Make sure you understand these special player abilities before starting your run so you can plan your moves accordingly.

To check special attributes related to your player, navigate to the Surfer section and tap your character. You can choose the special ability of the surfer you want to use in the run right from the start.

Personalize your skateboard before starting your run

Initially, you only have one skateboard. However, you can unlock more skateboards from Super boxes and by leveling up. Just like other players, each skateboard comes with a unique attribute. For example, a basic electric skateboard as a beginner can help you prolong the magnetic effect if the user accidentally touches the magnet while moving.

As you continue to unlock new types of skateboards, each type will come with special properties. Some skateboards can even get you double points when equipped to the player. So, in case there are many options, make sure you choose the type of skateboard that gives the best results before starting the race.
