What is Word Reflex?
Word Reflex is a rapid word-matching game. A target word is shown, the spinner cycles fast, and your job is to stop it exactly on the target. The closer your timing, the higher the score.
How to play
Press Start, watch the spinner, and hit Stop when the target appears. Each successful stop builds a streak that boosts your points.
How scoring works
Exact matches earn points based on reaction speed. Faster stops score higher, streaks add a bonus, and the speed slider applies a multiplier (slow speeds reduce scores, faster speeds boost them).
Tips to improve
- Focus on the target label, not the spinner blur.
- Use the speed slider to find your sweet spot.
- Play in short bursts to keep reactions sharp.
FAQ
How often does the target appear?
Word Reflex surfaces the target regularly so you are never waiting too long between chances.
Is there a leaderboard?
Yes. You can submit your best score to the Top 50 leaderboard.
Does a miss reset my streak?
Yes. Misses drop your streak back to zero, so clean timing matters.
