WAITER
Read full descriptionHide full description
How good is your internal clock? WAITER is a dead-simple, oddly addictive timing game. You get a target - say 10 seconds ā 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.
HeartFrame
Read full descriptionHide full description
Some truths survive only in fragments. Mira inherits HeartFrame, an abandoned photo restoration studio containing an experimental machine hidden by her late mother. When three strangers arrive with pieces of the same damaged photograph, their evidence points back to a fire, a missing work of art, and an official story that no longer holds together. Restore photographs, recordings, and case records. Compare details across different sources. Follow branching investigation routes and decide what should be revealed, protected, or questioned. THREE INVESTIGATION ROUTES Eason Cole ā A direct and passionate documentary photographer whose images preserve details the official record left out. Kim Jun-ho ā A restrained sound archive restorer who trusts continuity over appearances and hears what others missed. Dr. Lucien Moreau ā A composed psychiatrist who recognizes the gaps between memory, testimony, and altered records. FEATURES ⢠Reconstruct atmospheric photo and evidence puzzles. ⢠Investigate one mystery through three distinct perspectives. ⢠Make visible choices that shape later scenes and conclusions. ⢠Unlock route messages and character conversations as the case develops. ⢠Reach different truth, romance, and farewell endings. ⢠Continue each route independently without losing progress in the others. ⢠Play in 24 supported languages. The opening section of every partner route is free to play. Each partner's remaining route, beginning at Node 10, is available as a separate one-time, non-consumable in-app purchase.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: WAITER at none against HeartFrame's 3. WAITER also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
