There's not much to it. Tap to stop the spinning light when it's at the top of the loop. Do it 10 times in a row and the game speeds up. Miss and it's game over. The all-time high score is currently 65 and it was set years ago. Can anyone beat it???
Phlick
Read full descriptionHide full description
Phlick is a simple game. Swipe the screen in the direction of the arrow. The number of arrows is the number of fingers you need to swipe with. In "Timed" mode, try to get your combo as high as possible while the game gets faster and faster. If you swipe too slow, Game Over! In "Casual" mode, there is no timer. Chill out and practice swiping away. If you're up for a challenge "Perfect" mode does not allow any mistakes. One wrong swipe and it's Game Over! If none of these modes suit your style, you can make your own rules in "Custom" mode.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Phlick at none against hyper's shown. hyper's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 26 months). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
