You are the spark. Ride the rails. Don't touch the components. Short Circuit is a pure one-tap reflex game. Tap anywhere to flip polarity and jump between two copper rails on a living circuit board. That's the whole control scheme — and it's all you'll need to lose an afternoon. DODGE THE COMPONENTS Resistors and capacitors block your path. LEDs blink on and off — time it right and slip past while they're dark, or fry the moment they light up. COLLECT VOLTS, BUILD STREAKS Grab volt pickups as you ride. Chain them without a miss and every 5th volt pays a +5 bonus. One dropped pickup resets the streak. SHAVE IT CLOSE Skimming past a component earns a +3m near-miss bonus. The fastest way up the scoreboard is the most dangerous line. IT ONLY GETS FASTER The current accelerates the longer you survive. There is no finish line. There is only the crash. FEATURES - One-tap controls — play with either thumb, no tutorial needed - Runs in seconds: instant restart, perfect for queues and commutes - Blinking LED gates that reward timing, not just reflexes - Streak and near-miss systems for score chasers - Best score saved on device - Small download, no account required Power on. Flip fast. Don't touch anything.
