About

Hazard Recall

Features
Read full description

Hazard Recall is built for tense, repeatable rounds of visual memory: you get a clear look at a grid where some tiles are safe and others are hazards—then it hides and you tap everything you remember as safe. Miss a safe tile or hit a hazard and your score pays for it. When you’re sharp, locking in a clean recall can earn extra points for speed. HOW IT WORKS Each run is a series of rounds. Study the board while it’s visible, then recall it from memory. At the end you get a full run summary—total score, how you split points between the grid and time, and a round-by-round picture of how you performed. WAYS TO PLAY • Solo — Practice on your own with an easier track or a tougher one with larger boards. • Daily challenge — The same puzzle for everyone on today’s calendar day. Finish a run to put your best score for the day on the daily leaderboard when you’re online. • Play with friends (rooms) — Create or join a room with a short code. Everyone gets the same boards for that room, and finished runs appear on the room leaderboard. Pull to refresh anytime, or use Refresh scores when you want the latest standings. Open Room stats for a quick snapshot of how the group is doing. STATS Your finished runs are tracked on device—not synced across phones. Open Your stats from the home sidebar or hub menu: • Solo, Multi, and Daily tabs so you can browse history by how you played. • Solo and multiplayer history split easy and tougher layouts side by side. • Aggregates plus a running average chart once you’ve completed enough finishes—easy to see if you’re improving. • The daily tab can surface extras like leaderboard placement when the data is available. FEEL & ACCESSIBILITY Dial in sound (tile taps and feedback) and haptics (optional buzz that matches tile types) from the hub menu—turn either off anytime. HELP, ONBOARDING and SUPPORT • Short quick tips on first launch—you can rerun them anytime as Quick tips tour. • Rules & scoring is the full playbook: flow, visuals, hazards, and how points add up. • FAQ, contact support, plus privacy and terms are all in-app. Note: Solo works offline. Daily leaderboards, rooms, and some stat extras need internet and available game services. Terms of Service: https://www.hazardrecall.com/terms-of-service
