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? We would love to hear it! Please reach out to us at freestyle.feedback@gmail.com (One more thing. We have added accessibility support within Tic!, but if there is anything else we can do to make the app even more accessible please let us know by reaching out at freestyle.feedback@gmail.com or by telling us in a review. Thank you!)
