Lil Eepy is asleep. Wake him if you can. Every wake wins a card. There's only one way: watch the pattern flash across his body, then tap it back from memory. Every pattern is a little melody. Six rounds. Land the final pattern and he wakes up. Three card finishes: FADED, VIVID, PRISM. You never know which you'll get. Collect them all. Play well and the patterns grow with you. The longest pattern you land goes on your card. WHAT'S INSIDE - Watch-and-repeat pattern gameplay you play by ear - Patterns that grow as you get better - A card for every wake, three finishes to chase - Share your cards straight from the game - Surprisingly satisfying haptics - Hypnotic music that heats up as he stirs - No ads. No account. Open, play, wake him, done. He was cute while he slept.
