About Reflex Tap
Tap the shrinking orbs before they vanish, but never the spiky ones.
Reflex Tap is a reaction game played on a 3x3 grid of pads. Glossy orbs pop up and start shrinking at once, and a ring around each one shows the time left. Tap early for a Perfect (100 points), a little later for Great (60) or Good (30). Hits in a row build a combo multiplier, and every orb that vanishes costs one of your three hearts. When the last heart is gone, the run ends.
Each level is 20 targets and a little faster than the last, and levels two to six add a new kind each: golden orbs that shrink fast but pay triple, red spiky decoys that cost a heart if tapped but are safe to ignore, double orbs that need two taps, drifters that glide between pads and blue freeze orbs that slow time for four seconds. A cleared level adds 200 points, and a flawless one returns a lost heart. Tip: take the most shrunken orb first.
How to play Reflex Tap
- 1Tap or click an orb before it shrinks away; earlier taps rate Perfect, Great or Good.
- 2On a keyboard, Q W E, A S D and Z X C (or the number pad) hit the matching pad.
- 3Hits in a row raise the combo multiplier; a miss, a decoy or an empty pad resets it.
- 4Never tap the red spiky decoys. Golden orbs pay triple and blue ones slow time.
- 5A vanished orb or a tapped decoy costs a heart; the run ends when all three are gone.
