Green Light: how to play
🚦 Green Light: 1 to 8 players.
How it works
A test of nerve and reactions over five rounds. Everyone watches the TV. The signal stays red for a random few seconds, then turns green: tap your phone as fast as you can. Tap before it turns green and you are out for that round. The fastest finger takes the most points, and the TV shows everyone’s reaction time in milliseconds.
Tips for winning
- Watch the signal, not your phone. Keep your thumb hovering above the button.
- Do not tap early. A false start puts you out of that round.
- Rounds are short, so it is a great quick game between longer ones.
Who it suits
Good as a quick break, and for all ages.
