Calm Board

Calm Board - a reaction game where playing cards slide down four vertical lanes from the top of the board toward the bottom edge. A tap on a card clears it from its lane and adds points to the score, and a card cleared while it passes through the lit zone at the foot of its lane counts double. Every consecutive clear extends a series, a longer series raises the number of points each card brings, and a tap on an empty spot of a lane drops the series back to zero. Three lives are available at the start of each run, and every card that slips past the bottom edge takes one away. The pace starts calm and grows with every second, so cards arrive more often and travel faster the longer a run lasts. The score, remaining lives and current series stay visible above and below the lanes, and a pause button freezes the run with options to continue, start over or return to the menu. After the last life is gone, a summary panel shows the final score, the best result, the longest series and the total number of cleared cards. The eight best results are kept across launches and listed on a separate board, and a short rules panel explains the flow of a run. Settings include three speed levels, easy, normal and hard, a switch for screen shake and sparkle effects, a switch for the lit lane zones and a reset of the best result, with every choice saved for the next session.
