Collect keys in order, then slide through the unlocked exit
Air Hockey is a sliding puck puzzle on a 13×13 rink. Pick a direction and the puck slides until a wall or block stops it. Collect keys 1, 2, and 3 in order, then slide through the unlocked exit.
You play three stages back to back, scored on total time. The game mainly tests logical reasoning.
Use arrow keys, WASD, or swipe to slide. You cannot stop mid-slide or turn while moving, so choose the next direction from wherever the puck stops.
Keys must be collected in order, and the exit opens only after all three. There is no move limit, so resetting can beat forcing a bad route.
Scoring: faster total time scores higher. Extra moves only matter because they take time.

Test environment for Air Hockey.
Work backwards from each key. Find the stopping cell that lets a straight slide pass through the key, then the block that creates it.
Treat blocks as tools. They are your only stopping points. Check where each direction lands you and whether it sets up a useful next slide.
Know the physics. The puck only stops next to a wall or block, never in open space. To reach a cell, you need a block just before or just beyond it.
Use locked keys as landmarks. Keys 2 and 3 are visible early and point toward the route. If you are drifting away from both, you have taken a wrong branch.
Reset early. More than fifteen seconds stuck on one key usually means a fresh start is faster than untangling the route.
Plan the exit shot. Before grabbing the last key, know the stopping cell that lines up the exit.
