Lattice

A one-tap timing game for your XENEON EDGE. Set each block down on the last and see how high you can build before one misses.

How to play: press Start and a block slides back and forth above the last one. Tap anywhere on the widget to set it down. Whatever hangs past the block below is lost, so every slip leaves you a narrower block to land next time. Miss the block below completely and the game is over.

Land close enough for a Perfect and the block snaps into line and loses nothing. Perfects in a row build your streak and earn bonus points, and from the third in a row each one also makes your blocks wider again, so a good run can win back what you lost.

Blocks speed up the higher you build. A game usually lasts around a minute, just right for a loading screen or a queue.

Your score, streak and best are always on show. Your best score and your game are saved, so you can swipe to another screen and carry on where you left off. A swipe that starts on the widget doesn't set a block down, and if you leave a game alone it pauses until you press Continue. Nothing moves until you press Start, so it sits quietly on your dashboard between games. Lattice is made for the Medium slot and shows a reminder if it's set to Small.

Every theme has blocks of its own: frosted slabs on Glass, bars of hex bytes on Terminal, neon outlines on Cyberpunk, chunky bricks on Retro, inked panels and a PERFECT! burst on Comic Book, an RGB edge on Gaming and snow-capped stripes on Holiday. Theme Effects adds the flashes and sparks.

Part of a matching set! Hardware Monitor, Hardware Monitor Dials, Weather and Radar, Calendar, Clock, Calculator, Battery, Now Playing, FPS, Fan Monitor, Power Cost, GIF Frame, Game Launcher, RSS Reader, Audio Control, Stocks, Countdown Timer, Game Deals, UniFi Monitor, App Launcher, Fusion, Reactor and Geiger use the same themes, palettes and edges, so put Lattice next to a Large Hardware Monitor to make one seamless dashboard.
