How to play
- A card appears with an English word and a picture clue — your job is to decide if the picture matches the word.
- Swipe the card right (or tap ✓, or press the right arrow) if they match; swipe left (✗ / left arrow) if it's a fake.
- Each correct call scores points and grows your combo multiplier; a wrong call breaks the combo and costs you a couple of seconds.
- Keep going until the sixty-second clock runs out, then try to beat your high score.
