Can You Outlast the Competition? Have you ever been told you have a dead stare? Do you have some freakish condition where you don't need to blink? Maybe you're part of the living dead? Even if you're not, StareDown Match is your chance to get some rewards. How to Play: Press Record: See how long you can hold that epic stare (watch as a timer taunts you, letting you know how far you have come). Build Your Legacy: Record an epic stare-off video and submit it to the StareDown Match network (it's okay if it sucks, not everyone can be a winner). Power Up: Boost your chances of winning with awesome power-ups like a Cherry Bomb, Thunder, 'Second Chance,' and (when you want to wuss out) a 'Breather' (a 5-second blink grace period, to blink if you need that kind of thing). Strategically place power-ups to make sure YOUR video outlasts every opponent it comes up against. Preview Your Power: Watch your video with power-ups in action. Like what you see? Get ready to submit it! Win Big: Choose your stakes—want to test your video first (too scared to challenge)? Test it with coins on our practice match network. Or (if you have the stones for it) go all-in with our PRO matches to win. Real-Time Results: Track your success live, see your earnings grow, and know instantly when your video wins or loses. Analyze and Improve: Replay your losses, tweak your strategy, and resubmit for another shot at glory. Redeem Prizes: Collect coins and tickets to redeem for amazing real-world prizes. Challenge Friends: Link up for real-time stare-down matches against friends and family. Just for fun, no money involved—bragging rights only! Why StareDown Match? Because You're Awesome: Finally use that weird creepy stare you got made fun of for in school. Real Rewards: Use your coins and tickets for REAL prizes.
