You will do nothing. And you won't be able to stop. One button. Zero purpose. Tap it — nothing happens. Tap it again — still nothing. So why can't you stop? Hold the button. Let the void hum. A deep, evolving sound designed to quiet your mind. No goals. No distractions. Just nothing — and that's exactly what you need. Some say the void stares back after 10,000 taps. We can neither confirm nor deny this. — Nothing to do — Nothing to achieve — Nothing to unlock (or is there?) — Haptics that feel like nothing (but somehow satisfying) — Sounds that pull you deeper into nothing — A timer counting every second you'll never get back
