Drag from 1 to N without lifting
Drag from 1 to N without lifting
Connect numbered dots in order without lifting your finger.
Numbered dots appear at random positions when you press Start (or touch the board), and the time bar starts right away.
Place your finger on dot 1, then drag through 2, 3, ... to N without lifting — before the time bar at the top runs out.
Touching or sliding over a higher-numbered dot, lifting early, or running out of time fails the round. Clearing a round grows N by 1 (and gives a bit more time) up to 30 dots; after that N stays at 30 but every round allows a little less time per dot, so every run eventually ends. One failure ends the game.
Goal: longest streak.
The time bar starts draining the moment the dots appear, not when you touch dot 1, so scouting is not free — every second spent looking comes out of the same budget as the drag. On small boards, find 1 and 2 and start at once, reading the route while you drag with your eyes one or two numbers ahead of your finger. Touching a wrong dot fails the whole round, so on crowded boards a quick glance for the one or two links that need a detour is worth it — just keep it short.
As N grows the dots crowd together and it gets easy to clip a neighbour by accident. Drag through the centre of each dot rather than skimming its edge, and slow down through dense clusters where two numbers sit close. A smooth, continuous line that never lifts is the goal — jerky, stop-start dragging is what makes fingers stray onto the wrong dot.
