About the game

The simplest game on the Cube and the one people ask for again. Everyone holds their phone, the screens wait, and then they all turn green together.

The Cube keeps every phone on the same clock, so nobody gets a head start because their phone was quicker to hear about it.

How to play

  1. 1Join the Cube's WiFi and open the lobby on your phone.
  2. 2Hold your phone and wait. The wait is different every round.
  3. 3Tap the moment your screen turns green. Too early counts as a false start.
  4. 4Five rounds. Fastest reactions climb the scoreboard.
  • Fair by design

    Every phone flips to green on the Cube's clock, not its own.

  • Five quick rounds

    A full game takes about three minutes. Perfect while the kettle boils.

  • Scores that stick

    The Cube keeps the scoreboard across games for the whole evening.

If a phone leaves

If the phone running the game leaves, another phone replays the round that was interrupted and nobody keeps points they did not earn.
