The rules, step by step
- Twelve quick games, each learned from one page: logic, visual thinking, memory and focus.
- Every round climbs: a gimme or two, then harder boards and a twist near the top. Rounds last 30 seconds.
- Wrong pays nothing, breaks the streak and locks your thumb for a beat, so no mashing.
- With friends, each round’s places score 3, 2 and 1. Most points wins.
- Ranked is best of three against a rival. The higher your rating, the harder the rounds start.
- After 5 ranked matches you can veto one game before a match. The reserve game takes its place.
- Practice plays any game’s ranked round with no rating at stake.
- Your brain score for each game and each skill (Memory, Logic, Focus, Visual thinking) shows where you’re strong and where you’re weak.
Scoring and the fiddly bits
Wrong taps
A wrong tap pays nothing, breaks your streak and locks your thumb for a beat, so mashing costs more than it wins.
Solo stars
Half right is one star, at most one miss is two, and no misses inside par time is three. A star unlocks the next level.
Racing friends
Each round’s places score 3, 2 and 1, so one big round can’t decide the race on its own. Most points wins.
Ranked
Best of three, each round a different skill, starting harder as your rating rises. After five ranked matches you can veto one game before a match.
Practice
Plays any game’s ranked round on its own, with no rating at stake.
