How to Pass Every Exam to Survive in Cheat or Repeat

In Cheat or Repeat, survival takes place inside the tense classrooms of Redstone Academy, where every exam feels like a high-stakes mission. You’re an unprepared student forced to rely on your phone to find answers, but guessing randomly won’t get you through. Success requires strategy, awareness, and the ability to stay calm under pressure.

Mastering the Controls

Understanding the controls is essential to mastering Cheat or Repeat

Look Around (Left Click): Constantly scan the room to track the teacher’s position and avoid suspicion
Phone Search (Space + Typing): This is the core mechanic—type quickly to fill the search bar and reveal answers. Balance speed with accuracy to avoid wasting time
Answer Sheet (Right Click + 1,2,3,4): Once you have the answer, switch back and select it carefully to progress

Teacher Behavior & “Anomalies”

Teachers follow patrol patterns, but they are far from predictable

Normal Patrols: Learn their routes and identify safe moments to use your phone
The Horror Twist: Some teachers teleport, move unnaturally, or appear behind you without warning

The 4-Day Difficulty Curve

Days 1–2: You’ll learn the basics with slower teachers
Days 3–4: Difficulty spikes with faster patrols, longer search times, and more anomalies

Tips for High-Pressure Situations

Stay focused even when distractions appear, such as sudden phone ads
Use the “stare down” technique: look directly at the teacher to make them retreat in certain situations
If time is running out, don’t hesitate to guess; sometimes the classic “Circle C” approach can save your run
