Point

Tap too early, you miss. Tap too late, you lose. Point distills puzzle games down to one perfect shot after another.

Point feels like the kind of game a developer made to prove you don't need fancy graphics to be frustratingly addictive. You see a dot, maybe a circle, and you tap to fire. The catch? The dot's movement, the target's position, the timing window — all of it is just shy of unfair. It's not a shooter in the traditional sense; it's a puzzle where your finger is the only tool, and your sense of rhythm is the real weapon. I died more times than I care to admit on the very first level because I assumed tapping fast would work. It doesn't. The real hook comes when you stop mashing and start observing. Each level has a hidden pattern — the moving target might pause at the top of its arc, or the dot's speed increases right before you need to tap. Once you learn that Point rewards patience over reflexes, the whole game shifts. There's a specific level where the target orbits behind a small bar, and you have to tap the instant it's visible on the left side. I sat there for five minutes, holding my breath, missing by a pixel each time. When I finally nailed it, I didn't cheer — I just sat back and laughed at how tense a circle and a dot made me. Don't expect a tutorial or any hand-holding. The controls are literally 'tap the screen', and that's all you get. The difficulty curve is steep but fair, and the game's minimalism works in its favor. You can play it in a browser window while pretending to listen to a meeting, and it'll still destroy your focus. If you like puzzle games that make you feel clever one second and idiotic the next, Point is exactly that.

Tap on screen to shoot and play the game.

Observe one full cycle of movement before you tap — rushing leads to restarts. Memorize the target's pause point; it's usually the only reliable timing window. Keep your finger just above the screen so you never block your own view. Try tapping a fraction early on faster levels; the shot delay can work in your favor. If you're stuck, restart the level and count out loud in sync with the pattern.
