Hit Stop is the 20-second game you'll play hundreds of times. Hit stop as close to 5, 10, 15, and 20 seconds as you can. The closer you get, the more you score. Will you be the one to hit a perfect 20,000? HOW IT WORKS Hit start. The clock starts running. Hit stop at 5, 10, 15, and 20 seconds. Each target is worth 5,000 points, minus the milliseconds you missed it by. A perfect run is 20,000. Practice and precision make perfect. FEATURES Daily and weekly leaderboards. Your best run hits the global board the second you finish. Climb the ranks, defend your spot, watch the world catch up. Blind Mode. The clock fades after one second. From there, you're on instinct alone. Same game, no safety net โ€” where the real players live. Multiplayer. Play party mode at home against friends and family, and compete in live tournaments. No account required. Pick a username, pick a country, start playing. COINS & UNLOCKS Every play costs 1 coin. You get 10 free coins every day. Want more runs in one sitting? Watch an ad for 10 more coins (up to 3 times a day), or grab a coin pack: Starter โ€” 50 plays for $0.99 Standard โ€” 300 plays for $2.99 Large โ€” 750 plays for $4.99 Mega โ€” 2,000 plays + ad-free for $11.99 Prefer no ads? Hit Stop! Ad-Free is a one-time $2.99 unlock. You can still choose to watch ads to earn extra plays whenever you want. WHY YOU'LL KEEP PLAYING It's a commute game. A waiting-room game. A toilet-break game. An "I'm-not-bored-anymore" game. A "one more" game at 1 a.m. when you told yourself you were going to bed. Hit Stop. Lose track of time.
