How to play
- A marker rolls back and forth across the track. The 🥁 beat mark is always in the middle.
- Press STOP, tap the track, or press Space as the marker crosses the beat mark.
- Each beat scores 0 to 10 for how close you were. The rival drummer plays the same beats.
- After fourteen beats the higher total wins. The marker gets about a tenth faster every beat.
Controls: mouse, touch or keyboard. Made by CalcoTools.
Tips and strategy
- Count the rhythm in your head and tap on it, rather than reacting to the line.
- The first beats are slow: bank easy 10s.
- The beat mark never moves, so your hand can learn the exact timing.
- Space is a good key for steady tapping.
