How to Play VEX Challenges

Vex Challenges keeps the platforming the series is known for and inverts its clock. In previous Vex games the timer counted up and measured how long you took; here it counts down and decides whether you finish at all. That single change reframes every level — a route you could pick your way through carefully now has to be committed to.

The stars are what stop it from being a pure sprint. They are placed along the levels and picking them up costs time you may not have, so each stage becomes a question of how much of it you can afford to collect. The safest line and the complete line are rarely the same, and the countdown is what forces you to choose between them.

There are 75 custom levels, plus a hidden Challenge Mode for players who work their way to it. New skins are available and the soundtrack evolves as you progress, so the game changes around you as you get deeper into it. For a series built on precise, punishing platforming, the countdown is the most substantial change in a long time.

VEX Challenges Tips & Tricks

  • The timer counts down rather than up, so a level is failed by hesitation as surely as by a mistake.
  • Stars cost time to collect — the complete line and the safe line are usually different, and the clock forces the choice.
  • There are 75 custom levels, so the difficulty curve has room to build gradually rather than spiking early.
  • A hidden Challenge Mode exists for players who get far enough, giving the later levels a reason beyond completion.
  • The soundtrack evolves as you progress, which makes it a rough indicator of how deep into the game you are.
  • Committing to a route beats improvising one — with a countdown running, indecision is the most expensive mistake.

Is VEX Challenges Unblocked at School?

Yes. VEX Challenges runs entirely inside your browser tab as an HTML5 game, so there is nothing to download, install or unzip and no plugin such as Flash or Java is required. That matters on a school or office network, because the filters used on those networks usually block installers and app stores rather than ordinary web pages. It works the same way on a school Chromebook, an iPad or a phone as it does on a desktop — the game adapts to the screen you open it on. If the page loads for you, the game will run.

VEX Challenges FAQ

What is different about Vex Challenges compared to earlier Vex games?

Vex Challenges inverts the series clock: the timer counts down instead of up. Earlier Vex games measured how long you took, whereas here an allotted time decides whether you finish at all, turning careful platforming into committed platforming.

How many levels does Vex Challenges have?

Vex Challenges ships 75 custom levels plus a hidden Challenge Mode for players who progress far enough to find it. That gives the platformer a substantial run before its optional content even enters the picture.

What are the stars for in Vex Challenges?

Stars in Vex Challenges sit along each level as collectibles, and picking them up costs time from your countdown. Every star becomes a decision about affording the detour, since the safe line and the complete line rarely match.
