Wait for zero. Ignore the lies. Know when to walk away.

Description

Press the button as close to zero as you can, but never after it.

Sounds easy. It isn’t.

The countdown will freeze, jump, speed up, show fake zeroes and throw increasingly desperate distractions at you. It may lie about the time, the button, the rules, or all three at once.

The good news is that every trick leaves a clue.

Watch carefully, learn its tells and decide who to trust: the numbers, the sound, the interface… or your own increasingly questionable instincts.

After every successful round, you face one more decision:

Take your score and leave, or risk everything for a bigger multiplier.

The timer would really like you to continue.

How to play

• Watch the countdown carefully.
• Press the button as close to zero as possible.
• Pressing early is safe, but earns fewer points.
• Pressing after zero ends the run.
• Look for visual and audio clues whenever the timer starts acting strangely.
• After each round, bank your score or risk it on a harder round.
• The longer you continue, the bigger the multiplier, and the worse the lies become.

And remember

The game always lies. It does not always lie well.
