Math gate runner

Phones and computers

Murmuration Run is a math gate runner that plays in the browser on phones, tablets and computers, for one player.

Steer a flock of birds through one gate of each pair, where gates add, subtract, multiply or halve the flock. A bigger flock flies wider, so rock passes cut off more of the birds outside the gap. At the end of each level a storm counts the flock against a target; after 40 levels an endless mode opens.

Tips

The storm's target is 35 per cent of the best count any route could bring, never below ten, so a pass does not need the perfect line through every gate.
Width grows with the square root of the flock, capped at 150 units, so doubling the birds does not double the width; the narrowest gaps are 140 units.
A multiply gate just before a rock pass can cost more at the pass than it gained, so look a row ahead before taking the big number.

How does the storm decide if I pass?

At the end of a level the storm counts your birds against a target shown in the HUD. The target is 35 per cent of the best flock any path through that level could reach, allowing for every gate choice and rock passes flown dead centre, and it is never below ten.

What does each gate do?

Plus adds between 5 and 25 birds plus the level number; minus takes between 5 and 15 plus the level number; times doubles or triples; divide halves, rounding down but never below one bird. Plus gates are the most common at about two in five, and divide gates the rarest.
