WAITER

How good is your internal clock? WAITER is a dead-simple, oddly addictive timing game. You get a target - say 10 seconds — the screen goes dark, and you tap when you FEEL the time is up. No clock, no counting bar, no ticking. Just your gut. Then it shows exactly how far off you were, and whether you beat your best. HOW TO PLAY • See your target time. • Tap - the screen goes dark and a hidden timer starts. • Tap again the moment you think the time is up. • Get your error (+0.34s - too late!) and your score. Closer = more points, up to 1000 for a bullseye. THREE SOLO MODES • Classic-always 10 seconds. Build muscle memory and chase your best. • Random - a fresh target from 3 to 20 seconds every round. Keeps you honest. • Survival - random targets with a tolerance that shrinks each round. One miss ends the run. How far can you go? PARTY • Pass one phone around the table - 2 to 4 players, one screen. Closest tap takes the round. MORE • Session streaks and NEW BEST flashes • All-time stats: closest-ever tap, best score per mode, longest streak, perfect count, survival best • Satisfying haptics (toggleable) • A warm, hand-drawn paper look 100% on-device. No account, no ads, no network - nothing ever leaves your phone.
