## What is Tap It Away?

**WARNING THIS GAME MAY CAUSE RAGE**

**YOU DON'T NEED WIFI TO DOWNLOAD ;) YOU KNOW WE ALL HATE THAT MOMENT**

This the most addicting game in the world.

This game also helps you have better reflexes.

People who have heard about this game, first think that it is easy but after time they realize that they are rage quitting because they get angry and they loose.

Its is just a basic game of tapping squares, its that simple.
Some future updates will bring a better gaming experience and some awesome cool new features.

How to play:

For this game you have your base at the right side of the screen and squares come out from the left, you only have Three lives, so that means that only three squares can hit your base before GAME OVER, the green squares give you an average of ten to twenty points, but here is the catch if you tap outside the squares you loose and average of five to twenty points and if you get to negative points GAME OVER,
If you lose your three lives sorry GAME OVER, to get more lives tap the blue squares to get extra lives.

## Key features

- Offline play
- Reflex training
- Score-based gameplay
- Life system
- Tapping mechanics
