How to play
- Hold the receiver down and wait (press and hold with a finger on mobile, or with the mouse or Space key on desktop)
- The moment the bell rings, let go
- Your reaction time is how long you took after the bell started. Letting go before the bell is a false start
What is a rotary phone?
Black rotary phones were the standard telephones in Japanese homes and offices for decades. You dialed by turning a finger wheel, and an incoming call made a mechanical bell ring inside until you picked up the receiver. In this game, you race to lift the receiver the moment that bell rings.
