A glowing pacer hops across each line of text, and you tap in time with its beat so your eyes learn to read in fewer, wider jumps.
Was this fun?
How to play
A passage is laid out line by line, with each line split into fixation chunks. The pacer lands on one chunk per beat; tap on the beat to keep your focus meter charged and read the whole passage before it drains.
Tap exactly when the pacer reaches each chunk to register an on-beat fixation
On-beat taps sustain focus; mistimed taps or backtracking drain it
Harder settings use fewer chunks per line, forcing bigger eye-jumps
Run out of focus and the passage ends early
Game modes
Difficulty: Easy, Medium and Hard set how many fixations per line
Daily: a shared passage each day
Practice: fresh randomized passages on demand
Controls
Desktop: press Space, click the page, or click the TAP button on each beat
Phone & tablet: tap the canvas or the TAP button in time with the pacer
Tips & strategy
Trust the rhythm and let your eyes move with the pacer rather than reading every word individually
Build a long combo by settling into a steady tap cadence, chasing missed beats only drains focus faster
