Stack fast. Train smart. Race your best. Clacks is a precision cup-stacking arcade built for quick runs, deep improvement, and same-device competition. Tap cups in the correct order, build each formation, then collapse it cleanly while the clock records every hundredth. RACE COACH Your run history becomes a private performance model. Race Coach measures recent pace, clean-run rate, consistency, trend, and personal best for each pattern. It identifies the skill most likely to help next, sets a reachable target, and builds a four-block practice session. Every calculation stays on your device. SIX WAYS TO PLAY - Quick Stack: choose a pattern and chase a personal best. - Daily Stack: one deterministic challenge that changes each day. - Tournament: progress through six distinct opponents. - Practice: learn the next motion with clear cup guidance. - Local 2-Player: race side by side on one iPhone or iPad. - Endless Marathon: climb an escalating pattern ladder. THREE COMPLETE PATTERNS Master 3-3-3, 3-6-3, and the full Cycle. Each pattern has a purpose-built motion sequence, target tiers, personal-best ghost pacing, and detailed results. BUILT FOR REPLAY - Combo and accuracy scoring. - Personal-best ghosts and split feedback. - Thirty achievements and persistent local progress. - Full run browser, 30-day progress charts, and CSV export. - Cosmetic cup colors earned through play, never purchased. - Procedural clacks, feedback tones, and an adaptive soundtrack synthesized on device. - Haptics, cup labels, larger tap targets, independent audio controls, and Reduce Motion support. - Optimized layouts for iPhone and iPad. ONE COMPLETE PURCHASE No subscriptions. No advertisements. No in-app purchases. No account. No tracking.
