## What is StareMaster?

STARE IF YOU DARE

From the maker of SketchParty TV, StareMaster is the ultimate staring contest. Pick your opponent, hold up your front-facing camera, and lock eyes. And then… don't blink.

FACE THE GLARE GAUNTLET

Face off against the Elder Man. He's been staring down anyone who looked at him sideways since before you were born.

Then, take on the Teenager. She can maintain that expressionless gaze until you're on the verge of tears.

The final boss? The Baby. Battle his unblinking eyes.

Can you defeat them all with your icy stare?

TWO WAYS TO PLAY

• Versus - outlast a series of opponents one by one. Keep staring until one of you breaks and blinks.
• Stare-a-Thon - this staring contest doesn't stop until you do. Some last mere seconds, some can stare for minutes at a time. What kind of starer are you?

CHALLENGE YOUR FRIENDS

Share your best time and dare your friends to beat it.

PICK YOUR PUNISHMENT

With three difficulty tiers and three hilarious opponents, whether you're a rookie looker or an ice-cold StareMaster, there's a challenge waiting to break you.
