The Countdown Deception challenge: a fake countdown on the dark field
TapCult's charge screen: the score, three hearts and the Probe button in its ring

One loop, a few seconds at a time.

The TapCult charge ring around the Probe button, nearly full

1Tap to charge

Every tap on Probe feeds the ring around it. A steady rhythm fills it faster than mashing, and near the end the screen shakes and the dark creeps in.

The Spin Wheel challenge on the dark field

2Beat the anomaly

A full ring turns the screen dark and one short challenge surfaces. Clear it and your signal surges. Miss it and a heart goes.

The run-over card: a new best, the rank, and two unlocked challenges

3Climb the ranks

Three hearts, one run, one score. Your best run sets your rank, and every rank opens harder challenges.

Only a cleared anomaly scores. Clear them back to back and a streak multiplies each one, up to three times; miss one and it resets. The deeper a run goes, the harder every challenge gets. The first time you meet a challenge it is a practice round that costs no hearts.
