A question appears. The answer is a number between 1 and 15. You tap the button exactly that many times — not one more, not one less. Sounds simple. It isn't. The round doesn't end when you reach the answer. It ends when you STOP. One tap too many and it's gone. Wait too long and it's gone. There's no bar filling toward the answer — just your own count and your own nerve. THE DAILY CHALLENGE Every day, everyone in the world plays the same questions. Same order, same difficulty. You get one attempt, and it's spent the moment the run begins. Your result shares as a card of coloured squares — without giving the questions away. GHOST RIVAL A recorded run races alongside you: the player one place above you on the board, or your own best. Ahead or behind, round by round. Switch it off in settings if you'd rather not know. CHALLENGE A FRIEND Play a run, send the six-character code or the link. Your friend plays the exact same questions at the exact same difficulty. The only variable is the two of you. EVERY WEEK STARTS AT ZERO The all-time board is a record book. The weekly board resets every Monday — so someone who started yesterday can still see the top. WHAT YOU'RE UP AGAINST • Mental math under pressure • General knowledge from around the world • Count what you see — shapes, dots, objects • Colour-attention traps that fight your instinct • Geometry, logic and word questions • Short story problems • Mixed commands that change the rule mid-question THE BUTTON FIGHTS BACK As the tier climbs, the button stops behaving. It slides across the screen, shrinks, spins, disappears — and brings company: decoys that cost you dearly if you tap them. IT ADAPTS TO YOU Difficulty tracks how you actually play: ten tiers and a continuous skill score. Answer well and the clock gives time back; slip and it tightens. PROGRESS THAT STAYS • XP and levels • Per-category mastery — see what you're genuinely good at • Daily quests with rewards • A day streak worth protecting • Global and country leaderboards Free. Watching a rewarded video for an extra life or more time is entirely optional — never required. Fully playable offline. Six languages: English, Turkish, German, French, Korean, Japanese. How long can you keep counting? Privacy Policy: https://tapwise.excfy.com/privacy Terms of Use: https://tapwise.excfy.com/terms
