How to Play
Two modes, four difficulties, no tutorial needed.
The game loads in your browser and starts with a title screen. Press START once — that first press is also what unlocks audio, because browsers block sound until you interact with the page.
Controls
| Action | Mouse | Touch |
|---|---|---|
| Tap a cow | Click on it | Tap it |
| Rotate the camera | Click and drag | Drag with one finger |
| Zoom | Scroll wheel | Pinch |
Dragging never counts as a tap. The game measures how far the pointer travelled between press and release, so you can spin the camera around without accidentally scoring.
Tap mode
One cow, standing on a patch of mown grass. Tap it and it performs one of five reactions picked at random:
- Jump — hops with a squash-and-stretch
- Spin — full turn while rising
- Wiggle — shakes side to side
- Squash — compresses and springs back
- Backflip — full rotation around its middle
Every tap also opens its mouth and plays the moo. Tapping repeatedly builds a combo counter. The mouth movement is driven by the actual loudness of the sound, so it follows the syllables rather than repeating a fixed animation.
Invasion mode
A snake sits coiled inside the red ring at the centre of the field. Cows walk in slowly from every direction, heading for it.
- Tap a cow and it moos, pops upward with a spin, and vanishes. That is one point.
- Let a cow reach the ring and you lose a heart. The snake flinches and strikes.
- Run out of hearts and the round ends. Press PLAY AGAIN to restart.
Difficulty
Switching difficulty restarts the round immediately.
| Difficulty | Spawn interval | Walk speed | Max on field | Hearts |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Easy | 2.4s | 0.50 | 5 | 5 |
| Normal | 1.5s | 0.80 | 8 | 4 |
| Hard | 0.95s | 1.25 | 12 | 3 |
| Insane | 0.55s | 1.80 | 16 | 3 |
Tips
- Cows speed up as your score rises — up to 60% faster than the base speed for that difficulty. A long round gets harder even on Easy.
- New cows avoid spawning near an angle another recent cow is using, so they spread out. Watch the whole ring, not one side.
- Cows nearest the centre are the urgent ones, not the biggest ones on screen. The ones closest to you look large but are furthest from the snake.
- On a phone the camera pulls back automatically so the whole arena fits. You do not need to rotate to see cows behind you.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes. It is the same page — no app, no install. On iOS and Android you can also use "Add to Home Screen" to launch it full screen without browser chrome.
