Score increases while you survive. Higher tiers increase speed, pole height and dragon frequency while preserving a practical recovery window between hazards.
Use quick taps for low poles and held jumps for tall poles or dragons. Watch the hazard type before committing because over-jumping can reduce your time to prepare for the next obstacle.

The useful way to improve is to understand what the game is measuring. In Dragon Hop, the important pressure comes from The run advances through five tiers. Dragons appear only from Tier 3, and every hazard is separated by a full reaction and recovery interval. That means repeat runs are not only attempts at a better number: they are opportunities to recognize the decisions that create that number. Use the strategy above as a starting point, then compare your own runs and identify where time, accuracy, moves or survival are being lost.
