## What is Ninja Fingers?

Do you miss old times, sitting around a table playing games with your friends and family? Ninja Fingers was made to bring people back together, away from separate screens and into one shared moment.

Anyone can play, at any age or skill level, because you make your own rules (or bend them). It's built for 2-4 good friends, and yes, it involves touching hands.

――――――――――――――――――――――
 WHAT IS NINJA FINGERS?
――――――――――――――――――――――
Ninja Fingers is about being quicker and more nimble than your opponents. Pick your favorite ninja with a tap. The round starts as soon as 2 or more players have chosen a starting spot.

Your goal: touch your markers as they appear before your opponents touch theirs. You can have up to three markers on screen at once. Every three seconds a new marker pops up. Be quick, be nimble. Be first!

Be first to clear your hand of markers, and two things happen: your hand is now in the way of your opponents, making it harder for them to reach their position. Your next marker also gets a head start.

――――――――――――――――――――――
 YOU MAKE THE RULES
――――――――――――――――――――――
The rulebook is not carved in stone. You and your friends decide how to play.

Questions worth asking before you start:
• Is it OK to use both hands?
• Can you lift your hand off the screen?
• Is pushing with your hand or wrist fair game?

Different rules for different players work too: a 5-year-old might get to use both hands and push, while grandpa sticks to one hand, no lifting.

――――――――――――――――――――――
 BEFORE YOU START
――――――――――――――――――――――
This is a 2-4 player game with no single-player mode. If your device uses edge-swipe gestures for navigation, you may want to disable them first, a fast round of Ninja Fingers can accidentally trigger a back/home swipe.

――――――――――――――――――――――
 THE STORY
――――――――――――――――――――――
Ninja Fingers first launched in 2012, made together with my sister (who drew the characters), 3 hired helpers: programming, music and sound effects. It found its way onto a lot of kitchen tables and family game nights. Then, over the years, system updates piled up and the game stopped working on new devices.

In 2026, I finally rebuilt it for modern devices, so both old fans and new could once again could challenge their friends and family.
