Lights Out
A reaction game built like a Formula 1 start. The lights come on one by one, hold for a random pause, then go out all at once, and users react the instant they do. Reaction time is measured in milliseconds and ranked fastest first on a leaderboard, making it ideal for competitive booths and prize gates.
How the Lights Out works
Start the round
Users arrive at a row of unlit lights. Depending on the setup, an automatic countdown runs or users tap the start button to begin.
Wait for lights out
The lights come on one at a time, hold for a random pause that changes every round, then go out all at once. That is the signal.
React
Users tap the screen the instant the lights go out. Reacting while any light is still on is a jump start and ends the round.
Continue the journey
The reaction time appears in milliseconds. Users can join the leaderboard, unlock a reward or play again, depending on the campaign setup.
