Tap along while the click plays, then keep that exact tempo from your inner clock after it goes silent.

How to play
A click plays the target tempo for a few bars with a pulsing disc; tap along on each beat to lock in. Then the click cuts out and the canvas dims, you must keep tapping the identical tempo from memory. At the end your drift is measured against the target.
Tap on every beat while the click is audible to internalize the tempo
Hold the same tempo silently once the click stops
Score is highest when your silent-phase beat drifts least from the target BPM
Controls
Desktop: press Space or click the disc on every beat (Space also starts a round)
Phone & tablet: tap the disc on each beat
Game modes
Difficulty: Easy, Medium or Hard (longer silent stretches)
Daily for a shared target, Practice for fresh tempos
Tips & strategy
Settle into the click for the full audible section before it cuts out so the tempo is truly set
Tap from a steady body motion rather than reacting each beat, momentum keeps the silent tempo even
