Feeling bored but can't use your phone? Need a screen-free way to pass the time? Tic! has you covered! WHAT IS TIC? Tic! is a unique game with no sounds or visuals. Tic! uses haptic feedback (the vibrations your phone makes when you make a purchase, or long press an app on your home screen) in order to provide interactive, immersive gameplay! Just hold your phone in your hand, and tap away! HOW DOES TIC WORK? When you start, you'll feel a rhythm of 5 to 8 “Tics” (haptic vibrations). Your goal is to recreate the rhythm by tapping it anywhere on the screen. If your timing of your taps is close enough to the original, you win! If not, Tic! will replay the rhythm for you to try again. It sounds simple, but getting the timing just right is a fun challenge! Tic's Best Features: ANYTIME: Unlike fidget toys and stress balls, Tic! is with you all the time, ready to help out whenever you're bored! ANYWHERE: You can play Tic! anywhere without zoning out of your surroundings! (ex: in a movie theater, during a meeting, etc.) ANYONE: Almost anyone can play Tic!, even those who are sick or have certain disabilities. Tic includes accessibility support to make sure it's game fun for everyone! EYE STRAIN: Tic! offers a less stimulating alternative to social media and other games, perfect for when you want to give your eyes a break! WATCH: Your purchase includes Tic! for both iPhone and Apple Watch. The game is optimized for both versions, taking into account their differences in size and hardware. HAVE A QUESTION?

You can return to the home screen at any time by rotating the Digital Crown more than half way. Also, Sprint mode is only available on the iOS version of the app, which is why you can't find it on the Apple Watch, although I will add it to my notes to possibly add it in a future update! If you have any further questions or feedback please feel free to reach out to us at freestyle.feedback@gmail.com! Thank you for purchasing Tic! and for leaving a review! :) ### 5/5 — i like this *2026-01-26, version 3.1* that’s all i have to say ### 5/5 — Very original idea *2025-12-29* What a fun game, never seen something like this before, and it confuses others so bonus points! **Developer response:** I am so glad you like the game and its originality! Thank you so much for downloading and for your review! :) ### 4/5 — Good game but visual glitch *2025-11-11* On ios 26, instead of the screen being black there is a big grey button in the middle **Developer response:** Thank you for the review, and sorry to hear you are having issues with Tic! Could you please email me about this at freestyle.feedback@gmail.com (with a screenshot if possible) and I will get this fixed ASAP. ### 5/5 — I’ve had for a while and very good! *2025-06-30* I’ve had this game for about 7 months and it is very fun!i paid for it and got what i wanted and it’s exactly as it’s shown on the advertising!very fun would play again **Developer response:** I am so glad to hear you like the game!

By having to focus on the haptics without any visual or audio interruptions, it helps me tune out the noise of everyday life. It’s almost like a fun little meditation session. Perfect way to take a break from all the distractions and clear your mind! **Developer response:** I am really glad to know you like the game and are finding it useful for meditation! The minimalistic nature of the game really does make it therapeutic! :) Thank you so much for the review! ### 5/5 — Worth the 2 dollars and 6 cents *2025-03-16* I was the one who commented on your YouTube ;) Absolutely worth the 2 bucks. Perfect game and idea. One glitch though- the button is just a giant gray button on the iPhone version. The Watch version is just fine. Could you make it so on the iPhone app, it makes sound with silent mode off like it does on the Watch version? (I get why it does that because the sounds). Sound helps me memorize it more. Really enjoyed this game. 5 stars. **Developer response:** Thank you so much for the in depth review! I am really glad you found the app to be worth the money and are enjoying the game! I will consider adding an option for sound for the iOS version in the future. In regards to the issue about the large gray button, I would appreciate if you could send me your device version and a screenshot at freestyle.feedback@gmail.com, and I would be happy to look into it further. Once again thanks for finding the app through YouTube and giving it a go! I really appreciate it! ;) ### 5/5 — Bang for your buck *2025-03-09* Best game to play if you’re bored without looking like your playing a game I would love more game modes the sprint is very creative **Developer response:** Thank you so much!
