Features & Capabilities

Hold your phone perfectly still for as long as you can. Pop the emoji if you dare. Three plays a day, and a leaderboard of everyone near you.

How long can you hold your phone perfectly still?

That's the whole game. Hold it steady, hold it level, and don't wobble. Every second counts. One twitch and it's over.

Sounds easy. It isn't.

IT GETS HARDER THE LONGER YOU LAST The margin for error shrinks the whole time you're playing. Survive long enough and even a heartbeat is enough to end you. And every time you beat your best for the day, the rest of today's rounds start even harder. Tomorrow it resets.

POP THE EMOJI — IF YOU DARE Emoji flash up while you're playing. Tap one before it disappears and it explodes for bonus points. Just remember: touching the screen is the fastest way to wobble out. That's the gamble.

THEN PROVE YOU WERE WATCHING When your round ends, you'll be asked to tap the emoji back in the order they appeared. Points for every one you get right.

YOUR SCORE, ONE NUMBER 10 points per second survived, 25 for every emoji you pop, 15 for every one you remember. Steady hands still win — but the emoji are how you beat someone who lasted just as long as you.

THE LEADERBOARD IS LOCAL See how you rank against people actually near you — within 500m, 1km, or right out to 20km. Today, this week, this month. The moment you fail, the front camera catches your face, and that photo goes up next to your score for everyone nearby to see. Decorate it with emoji if you're feeling brave.

THREE PLAYS A DAY Three skulls on the home screen. One gets crossed off every time you start a round. They come back at midnight. Make them count.

Your first day is free. After that it's CA$0.99 a month to keep playing — and the leaderboard is always free to look at, whether you subscribe or not.

Idle Hands. Hold still. Stay level. Don't wobble.
