Watch for a square you have seen.
Squares light up one at a time on a three by three grid. Press Match when the lit square is in the same spot as the square you saw a set number of beats ago. If it is in a different spot, wait for the next one.
This sends this round — score, settings, active time and task counts — to Studio AM with a random guest ID, and keeps sharing later rounds until you turn it off. No name, no individual answers, no drawings, and nothing from your earlier history.
How to play
One square lights up per beat. Keep the recent squares in mind as they go by.
Press Match when the lit square is in the same spot as the square you saw a set number of beats earlier. At 1-back that means the square just before. At 2-back it means two before, and so on.
Do nothing when it does not match. Pressing Match on a square that is not a match costs you a point, so pressing it on every beat scores zero.
Squares do repeat at other distances. Those are not matches, and they are there on purpose.
Press Space or tap the button. The round runs to the end on its own.
