How to Play
Circles appear at random positions across the screen. Each circle starts full-size and gradually shrinks. Tap a circle before it disappears to score. Let a circle vanish completely and you lose a life. Lose all 3 lives and the game ends.
- Tap or click circles before they shrink away
- Blue circles are worth 1 point each
- Golden circles with "x5" are worth 5 points
- Miss 3 circles total and it's game over
- Circles spawn faster as the game progresses
Tips and Strategy
Pro tip: Keep your eyes on the full screen using peripheral vision. Don't tunnel-vision on one circle - new ones can spawn anywhere while you're focused elsewhere.
- Prioritise golden circles - they're worth 5 points and appear roughly 1 in 8 times
- Tap newer (larger) circles first - they have more time left than small, nearly-faded ones
- Sometimes it's better to let a tiny, almost-gone circle miss than to panic-tap and lose focus
- Multiple circles can appear at once later in the game - stay calm and work through them
Scoring
Regular blue circles score 1 point. Golden "x5" circles score 5 points. Your total score is the sum of all tapped circles before you lose your 3 lives. There's no time bonus or combo multiplier.
Frequently Asked Questions
Glowing circles appear at random positions and start shrinking. Tap them before they vanish to score points. Miss 3 circles and it's game over. Golden circles are worth 5 points.
Golden circles appear randomly and are worth 5 points instead of the usual 1. They show an "x5" label inside and are always worth prioritising when they appear.
Keep your eyes scanning the full screen rather than fixating on one area. Prioritise golden circles for 5x points. Focus on larger, newer circles first since they give you more time.
