Why Play This Game? (My Experience)
I was cruising through the early rounds, feeling sharp. Then, a screen of grinning ghosts appeared. My eyes darted—they all looked the same! Panic set in as the timer hit 0.5 seconds. I spotted it: one ghost had its tongue out. I slammed my mouse button just in time. The rush of beating the clock was pure, simple joy, followed immediately by dread for the next, faster round.
