+1 Nose to Escape Beginner's Guide: Your First 30 Minutes

The +1 Nose to Escape lobby with the Nose Shop, treadmills and the Stage 1 gate

I made +1 Nose to Escape, and I've watched a lot of testers play their first few minutes. This guide covers what the tutorial doesn't say out loud, plus the mistakes I saw the most.

The tutorial, step by step

The game walks you through your first steps with arrows on the ground and a text bar at the top of the screen.

  1. Train to Level 2. Walk onto a treadmill in the lobby. You start growing Nose right away, and your Level bar at the bottom fills up. Until you finish the tutorial you train twice as fast, so this step only takes a few seconds.
  2. Cross Stage 1. Walk to the lava canyon and stretch across the two short gaps. Stage 1 is made so that the starting nose reaches easily.
  3. Step on the win pad. Stand on the pad on the last platform to get your first Win.
  4. Buy your first nose. Back in the lobby, step on the glowing pad in the Nose Shop. The Carrot nose costs 1 Win and doubles your Nose per second.

After that, the game still points you to the next thing to do, like a new nose you can afford.

How to aim and zip

The nose always starts growing a little upward and then bends toward where your camera is looking, not where your character is facing. That trips up almost everyone at first.

Stretching toward the next platform. Aim your camera at the top of the platform, not at the lava.

Your reach decides which stages you can do

Your nose reaches 36 studs at Level 1, and every Level adds 7 more. Each stage's sign shows a recommended Level, which is the Level where your reach clears its widest gap. If you keep falling short, you don't need better aim, you need more Levels. Go back to the treadmills.

The stages guide lists the recommended Level for all 11 stages.

Train smarter on the treadmills

Spend your Wins on noses first

Every nose in the Nose Shop gives more Nose per second than the one before, and they unlock in order. Early on, a new nose is the best thing you can buy with Wins. Blooms (flowers that grow along your nose) are also good, but they cost more Wins for a smaller jump at the start. The noses guide has every cost.

Grab the extras on the stages

The teal VIP pad pays 3x Wins. The normal pad next to it is fine without the pass.

When you hit "MAX"

Your Level stops at a cap, and the first cap is Level 10. When you reach it, the only way forward is to rebirth. It starts you over at Level 1 but makes every bit of Nose you earn after that worth more, and you keep your Wins and noses. The first rebirth is quick on purpose.
