Run Forrest Run: Helmets and Perks -

What Are Helmets, and How Do I Use Them?
   - Helmets are consumable items that you can buy from the "Boosts" section for 500 Coins each.
   - To activate and equip your Helmet, simply "double tap" while running.

   - While active, you can also get some Perks, depending on the Helmet you equipped under Shop > "Helmets" section. By default, you have the "Green Machine" helmet which can take a hit, or can save you from 1 crash. Note that this Perk is only active for a limited time, or until the duration of your Helmet runs out.
   - Note that all Helmets sold from the Shop can at least take 1 hit.

   - I don't recommend using this one early game, save up your Coins for better items or upgrades instead.
   - Recommended only if you are trying to set a high score late game. If you are unsure if you can break through an upcoming tricky obstacles, use this to protect you.

Recommended Coins Only Helmets
   - The "Big Game" helmet can take 2 Hits (25,000 Coins). This one is one of my favorites, it can save you from 1 hit, after that, the timer will reset and it can save you again from another hit. Highly recommended for free to play players.
