**The Faded - Alan Walker** is the 34th level in Dancing Line. Currently it is removed from the game.

* This level was removed in v2.8.3, June 11th, 2020, along with The Alone - Alan Walker and Faded - Easy Mode, although you can get it by buying the Dancing Line Premium subscription.

## Soundtrack

The soundtrack is based off Alan Walker's song called "Faded", as the level name suggests. It is remixed by Cheetah Mobile.

Original music video is shown below.

## Difficulty

* Because of the graphics in the level, low end smartphones might experience high amounts of lag.
* There are many cases in which the paths are very narrow, like the motherboard section.
* Beware, said motherboard section is long (It lasts from 24% to 45%).
* When the cube leaps, it is very easy to miss or tap early, as the cube will sometimes crash due to lags.
* The checkpoints are also spread out. Both the first two checkpoints are reached before the half way mark (17% - first, 44% - second, but the halfway is 50%).
* The city after the 2nd crown will suddenly appear (45% to 81%), causing confusion to new players.
* The heart checkpoint after the second crown could lead the cube to crash if it lags, due to being very close to a wall.

## Strategy

* Listening to the music and becoming familiar to the tap pattern will help a lot. Watching other people do it while tapping along is a good method.
* The motherboard path is very misleading. Listen to the music to tap at the optimal time.

## Trivia

* For Android users, this level was released alongside The West.
	+ This was because it took too long for Google Play to approve of The West's update.
* This level is based off of futuristic cities in popular culture.
* The game files for this level likely still remain, explaining why this level can still be played after being removed if it was purchased.
* In The The Despacito Update, The Faded - Alan Walker and The Winter (House Remix) have been moved down in the level selection among with the harder levels, despite having a moderate difficulty rating.
* In this level, a mirror effect can be seen around 70%. There'll be 2 lines, and the one at the background is pixelated.
	+ Cheetah Teddy, Flying Nimbus, and Magic Cloak do not have reflections in the mirror; Slither only appears as a head; and Snowball looks like a floating ghost.
	+ The first oddity was fixed in later updates.
* This is the first level which requires real money, not in-game gems to unlock. This is because the soundtrack is copyrighted. As of the latest update, this is now possible to be unlocked using gems.
	+ The second was The Faded Original. However, it was removed, so The Indian Journey is next.
	+ Completing the level without buying it won't unlock the level, but it is possible to get it from the Lucky Box.
	+ The Storm and The Desert needed real money in the past, but now you can unlock it in a lot of free ways.
* This is the second level to see the cube jumping; the first being The Cathedral, and the third being The Storm (Blues Remix).
	+ Sometimes, the launch pad doesn't propel the line high enough, causing the line to crash. This occurrence is random.
	+ The fifth or sixth launch pad can propel the line incorrectly if the tap before it is too late.
	+ The jump before the mirror part might be hard for new players who haven't played this level yet or just hasn't got the tip.
* This and Faded - Easy Mode are the longest levels in the Dancing Line, lasting three minutes and twenty-one seconds.
* When the cube is in the motherboard, some icons of levels are seen. The Christmas Eve, The Desert, and The West are some of the levels featured, while there are also icons of unknown levels.
* The level icon resembles a microchip.
* Black human figures appear near the end. They explode into cubes when the line gets nearby. This makes it the third level to have human/human-like characters appearing, after All About Us and The Christmas Eve, and before The Hip Hop Evolution & The Legend of Assassin.
* On iOS and some Android devices, instead of The Legend of Assassin being added, there was an event for this level, which much like the event for The Faded Original, except it involved 3 Chapters. The rewards were: Chapter 1: 50 Gems, Chapter 2: The Dominoes Skin, and Chapter 3: The Faded for free.
