Game Modes
CLASSIC
Timed precision
Race against the clock as rings progressively speed up. Score as high as possible before time runs out. The entry point — and where S-Rank mastery begins.
ENDLESS
No limit, no mercy
No time limit. The ring accelerates continuously — every 3 hits, the next is faster. Your run ends the moment you miss. How long can you hold focus?
RUSH
Aggressive from the start
Rush starts at a difficulty level that would take minutes to reach in Classic. The ramp is steep and unforgiving. For players who’ve already mastered the basics.
DAILY CHALLENGE
One seed. Three attempts.
Every midnight a new procedurally seeded challenge unlocks. You get 3 attempts. Earn 1.5x XP on every run. Your best score is locked in. Resets at midnight.
Rank Progression
Earn XP every run. Rank up through 9 tiers from Novice to Surge Master.
Daily Challenge runs award 1.5x XP to accelerate rank-up

Frequently Asked Questions

Neon Cyan is unlocked by default. Gold Surge: score 150+ in Classic. Void: reach Rhythm rank (350 XP). Ember: hit 20x combo in one run. Ice Crystal: survive 60+ seconds in Endless mode. Obsidian Pro and Aurora Pro are premium themes unlocked via the Remove Ads one-time purchase ($0.99).
What is the Remove Ads purchase?
Remove Ads is a one-time $0.99 lifetime purchase. It permanently removes all ads from Surge and unlocks two exclusive ring themes: Obsidian Pro and Aurora Pro. It is not a subscription — you pay once, it applies to your Apple ID forever.
What are the 4 game modes?
Classic: timed with progressively faster rings. Endless: no time limit, ring accelerates continuously until you miss. Rush: starts at aggressive difficulty with extreme ramp. Daily Challenge: procedurally seeded, 3 attempts per day, 1.5x XP bonus, resets at midnight.
What is S-Rank and how do I earn it?
S-Rank (Flawless) is the highest per-run grade. Requirements: 200+ score, 15x or higher combo, and 80%+ of taps in the Perfect timing window. S-Rank runs reward power-ups: Slow Ring, Extra Life, or Double Score.
How does the revive system work?
After game-over, you can watch a short rewarded video ad to revive and continue your run from where you left off. This is optional — you can decline and end the run. With the Remove Ads purchase, the revive button remains but no ad plays.
