More about this game
Your goal is to track the hidden coin and guess its location to survive all ten rounds. Each round begins by revealing the coin under one of three colored cups for 1.25 seconds. The cups then swap positions multiple times. You must tap the correct cup to earn points and keep your three starting hearts. As you progress, the cups swap faster and perform more shuffles, making it harder to follow the target.
Tips
- Focus entirely on the single cup holding the coin instead of watching the whole table, as distractions will make you lose track during the fast swaps.
- Prepare for the speed to increase steadily; the base swap time drops by 0.045 seconds after every correct guess you make, demanding faster visual tracking.
- Expect longer shuffles in later stages, as the base four swaps increase by one every two rounds you complete, forcing you to focus for longer periods.
Questions
How many mistakes can I make?
You start the game with three hearts. Every time you pick an empty cup, you lose one heart. If you lose all three hearts before reaching round ten, the run ends immediately.
How is the score calculated?
You earn a base of 100 points for a correct guess in the first round. This reward increases by 25 points in each subsequent round you reach, rewarding your survival.
How do I win the game?
You need to successfully track the coin and survive for ten complete rounds. If you keep at least one heart by the end of the tenth round, you win the party challenge.
