How to play The Perfect Stop
The Perfect Stop is a timing game. A number counter races from 0.00 to 9.99 and wraps around. Each round shows you a target, like 7.43. Tap the scoreboard (or press Space on a computer) to stop the counter as close to the target as you can.
Ten rounds, play as often as you like
Every game has ten rounds. Everyone in the country gets the same ten targets that day, so scores are directly comparable and you can trade results with friends. Play as many times as you want; your best score of the day is the one that counts. The highest score of the day wins the daily prize, at least $10 and more as the day's games add to it, plus the daily trophy.
The counter gets harder
Round 1 moves at a little over one number per second. Each round is faster than the last, and by round 10 the counter covers more than six numbers a second. From round 6 on, the counter also speeds up and slows down as it runs, so a steady rhythm won't work. You have to watch it.
Scoring
Each round is worth up to 1,000 points. Landing exactly on the target scores the full 1,000. Every hundredth you miss by costs 8 points, so stopping 0.10 away scores 920 and stopping 0.50 away scores 600. A perfect game is 10,000, and nobody has scored one yet.

The 90-second clock
You have 90 seconds of play for all ten rounds. The clock only runs while a round is on screen. If the clock runs out, the remaining rounds score zero. Leaving or reloading in the middle of a round counts that round as a miss, so finish what you start.
Streaks and leaderboards
Play on consecutive days to build a streak. Your best score of the day goes on today's leaderboard, and your daily bests add up on the weekly and monthly boards. Your first completed game each day earns your jackpot entries. Missing a day doesn't erase your past scores, but it resets your streak and puts you behind on the weekly and monthly totals.
Fair play
Every score is checked by the server. Bots, scripts, auto-clickers and extra accounts are removed. One person, one account, verified by your mobile number.
Tips from the scoreboard
- Watch the counter, not your finger. Start your tap a beat before the target arrives.
- In the wobble rounds (6โ10), watch how fast it's moving as it approaches the target and adjust.
- Your first game earns your jackpot entries, so every game after that is pure practice for a higher score.
