# Tool Assisted Speedrun
Tool assisted speedrun (TAS) is a category of [game](game.md) [speedruns](speedrun.md) in which help of tools and play techniques that would normally be considered [cheating](cheat.md) (such as [scripting](script.md) and time manipulation) is allowed. This makes it possible to create flawless, perfect or near-perfect runs which can serve as a theoretical upper limit for what is achievable by humans -- and of course TAS runs are pretty [fun](fun.md) to watch. The normal, non-TAS runs are called RTA (real time attack). For example the current (2022) RTA world record of Super Mario Bros is 4.58.881 while the TAS record is 4.41.27.

{ Watching a TAS is kind of like watching the [God](god.md) play the game. I personally like to watch Trackmania TASes, some are really unbelievable. Also note that [SAF](saf.md) games have TAS support. ~drummyfish }
