Button 1 — the big buttonpress — only on green

How a round goes

No countdown. Your part of the screen says wait for green…, then, after a random one and a half to four seconds, it turns green and says PRESS! The first legal press takes the point and shows its reaction time.

Pressing before green is a false start. With two players the other player gets the point. With three or four, you sit out the rest of that round while the others carry on.

Scoring and winning

One point per round; first to five wins. The wait is the game's real difficulty — sitting still with a button under your thumb is the hard part.

Tips

  • Do not try to predict it. The wait is different every round.
  • On the Little Kids profile a press that lands just short of green still counts.
