A dot circles the ring. An arc waits somewhere ahead. Tap when the dot is inside it. That is the whole game. Every hit makes the dot faster and the arc narrower. One miss ends the run. Hit the exact centre of the arc and it counts as a perfect and perfects in a row build a multiplier up to ×5. The colour of the screen shifts as the run goes on, so you can feel how far you have come without reading a number. FIVE MODES STEADY — Slow and wide, and it never reverses. The place to learn the rhythm. CLASSIC — The full curve, with the dot reversing direction later in a run. RUSH — No warm-up. It starts roughly where Classic begins to hurt. ALTERNATE — The dot reverses on every single hit. The timing is never twice the same. VANISH — The dot fades out before it reaches the arc. Tap from memory. Each mode keeps its own best score and its own global leaderboard. BUILT TO BE FAIR The next arc is never placed so close that it cannot be reached. However fast the dot is travelling, there is always time to react — so when you miss, it is because you mistimed it, not because the game cheated. ALSO • Twelve achievements, from your first perfect hit to fifty hits without a miss • Game Center leaderboards for all five modes • Your records follow you between devices over iCloud • Plays entirely offline and works without signing in to anything • No adverts, no in-app purchases, no account, no tracking • Every sound is generated as you play, so a long streak turns into a rising melody

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Arcwise at none against Traffic Cop 3D's 5. Arcwise also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 months). Traffic Cop 3D's advantage is chart position (#145 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
