How it plays
- The dial on the left half of your phone is your walking speed: slide it up to walk faster. Let it fall into the red third for half a second and you go down for two seconds.
- SIT is on the right half, and while the record plays it is a trap that costs the same two seconds. The moment the music stops, walk up to a free chair and press it. One chair short every round.
Rules
- How it runs. The music plays and stops without warning. The dial on the left half of your phone is your walking speed: slide it up to walk faster round the chairs.
- Scoring. You may never stop walking while the record plays. Let the dial sit in the red third for half a second and you go down for two seconds, and pressing SIT early costs exactly the same.
- Winning. When the music stops, nothing is handed out: walk up to a free chair and press SIT. Too far from one and you keep walking until you reach it. Whoever is still standing when the chairs run out is gone.
On the phone
