Skip the Ad

Skip has one job: get you to the lesson. Every ad here is made up, and so are its fake Skip buttons. Wait for the real button on the player bar, then tap it the instant it shows. An arcade break that trains reaction speed and self-control.

Skip the Ad

A made-up ad plays before your lesson. The real Skip button appears on the player bar when the countdown ends. Fake ones hide inside the ad.

Wait. The player bar counts down: Skip in 3, 2, 1.
Skip. The moment the real Skip ad button appears on the player bar, tap it (or press S).
Ignore decoys. Skip buttons drawn inside the ad picture are fake. Tapping one costs a life.
Don't doze. Wait more than 3 seconds once Skip is ready and the whole ad plays: one life lost.

Quick tips

Watch the bar. The real button only ever appears on the player bar, after the countdown. Keep your eyes there.
Use the key. On a keyboard, S skips as soon as the real button is ready. It ignores the decoys.
