Event 1 of 5
Count: how many dots?
A dot field flashes briefly, then disappears. Enter the number of dots you saw.
Get a Count hint
Think in groups of five or ten. The total is between 75 and 85.
Reveal the Count answer
80 dotsThe exact target count for #36.
- Look for rough groups of five or ten during the flash, then add the remaining dots.
- This answer is 8 groups of ten.
- The normal exposure lasts two seconds. Estimate the whole field before entering one count.
A count error is relative to the true total: being one dot off means 1.25% error on this field.
Event 2 of 5
Track: where does the ball land?
Watch the early part of the flight, then select the landing point on the ground.
Get a Track hint
Continue the arc to the ground, not the point where the ball fades. The landing is right of the field’s center.
Reveal the Track landing and trajectory
60.66% across the fieldLanding x ≈ 485.311 on the original 800-unit-wide field.
- Launch x

- Full flight

- Fully hidden after
- 0.622 s
- Wall bounces
- 0
- The ball launches from x ≈ 106.47 and begins to fade at 0.542 seconds.
- Extend the parabola down to the same ground height. There is no side-wall rebound in this puzzle.
- Choose the ground position 60.66% from the left edge of the full field, right of center. The exact generated x value is 485.31141011330413.
The field scales to your screen. Do not tap 485 CSS pixels from your phone’s edge. The visible ground line itself spans x=30–770; this target sits 61.53% along that shorter line.
Event 3 of 5
Angle: which direction and how many turns?
The original shows the requested counterclockwise angle before you drag. This solution explains how to reach it.
Get an Angle hint
Start from the dashed rightward horizontal. Counterclockwise passes upward first; use the true horizontal rather than the tilted frame.
Reveal the Angle target and turn guide
259° counterclockwiseFrom the rightward horizontal, through 259°.
- Start on the dashed line pointing right: that is 0°.
- Continue counterclockwise for 259°, then release to lock.
- Ignore the tilted surrounding frame. Normal scoring uses the shortest angular difference from the target.
Event 4 of 5
Tempo: what pulse should you keep?
Follow four warm-up beats, then make eight continuation taps.
Get a Tempo hint
Follow four warm-up beats, then continue eight evenly spaced taps. Keep the original pulse rather than speeding up when the sound stops.
Reveal the BPM and timing reference
100 BPM600 ms per beat · on-beat continuation
- Follow the four loud clicks at 100 beats per minute.
- Continue one full period after the last loud beat: 600 ms.
- Keep all eight continuation taps 600 ms apart. Keep the same spacing when the sound stops.
Ideal offsets after the last loud beat:
- Tap 1600 ms
- Tap 21,200 ms
- Tap 31,800 ms
- Tap 42,400 ms
- Tap 53,000 ms
- Tap 63,600 ms
- Tap 74,200 ms
- Tap 84,800 ms
These offsets assume an ideal warm-up reference. The original adjusts its timing reference using your warm-up taps and separates overall timing offset from jitter. The BPM is fixed for this date; actual wall-clock tap times depend on when you start and how you followed the warm-up.
Event 5 of 5
Split: where does the fraction land?
Measure the requested fraction from the named endpoint. The prompt already gives that value; this solution places it on the line.
Get a Split hint
Measure from the right endpoint. The target is less than halfway along the original line.
Reveal the Split position and calculation
2/5 from the right40% of the original line · target x ≈ 460
- The original line runs from x=100 to x=700, so its length is 600.
- 2/5 corresponds to 0.4 × the original line, or 240 logical units from the right endpoint.
- 700 − (2/5 × 600) = 460.
The answer is 40% measured from the named endpoint along the original line. Its position on the whole 800-unit field is 57.5% from the left. Those are different measurements.
