How do you play Press Swipe Play?

The music calls the moves out loud: "Press it!" "Swipe it!" "Play it!" React on sound alone before the window closes.

  1. Pick a scene. Gizmo is free; Diner, Dojo and Pirate come with Unlock Everything.
  2. Listen: the track calls each move out loud, and you do it before the window closes.
  3. In party mixes, "Pass it!" means hand the remote to the next person, fast.
  4. One wrong move or one miss ends the run. Your score is how many calls you survived.

Scoring: Your score is how many calls you survive. Survive every call to beat the machine.
