Match the wave. Cancel it. Hear the silence.
Counterwave is a reflex and timing game built on one idea: every wave has an exact opposite. Shape it with one thumb, let go, and watch two waves cancel into a perfectly flat line.
Learn it in seconds. Master it across 40 levels.
HOW IT PLAYS
• A wave rolls in. Read its shape on the scope under the field.
• Drag up for a crest, down for a trough, further for a taller wave.
• When the match meter reads LOCKED, let go.
• Meet it in the middle for a PERFECT. Push the same way and the waves stack instead.
CHAIN PERFECTS
Every clean cancel drops the field into a split second of silence, lands a crisp haptic in your hand, and builds your multiplier. Miss, and a shock ripples through the field.
40 HAND-BUILT LEVELS, 8 RANKS
Narrow spikes, wide swells, twins, triplets and ripples that fight back. Every fifth level is a rank exam, and three stars wait on every level for steady nerves and sharp timing.
A NEW DAILY CHALLENGE
One daily puzzle, the same for every player. One official run, unlimited practice, daily missions and a streak to protect.
ENDLESS AND ZEN
Endless speeds up until you slip, so every run is a shot at a new high score. Zen never fails you: one wave at a time, as calm and relaxing as you like.
FIVE SIGNAL THEMES
Oscilloscope, Aurora, Seismic, Ion and Ember: neon on deep navy, aurora greens, a bright paper-white field and more. Every palette is tuned to stay readable with red-green color blindness. Unlock new themes with crystals you earn by playing.
MADE TO BE FELT
Precise haptics on every launch and every cancel. Sound is synthesized live, so a perfect rings out and fades into real silence.
PLAY ANYWHERE
One-handed, no account, and no Wi-Fi needed to play. Your progress stays on your phone.
Counterwave is supported by ads. Ads never interrupt a run, and your first six runs have none at all. A one-time Remove Ads purchase turns interstitial ads off for good; optional rewarded bonuses stay available if you want them.
