A complete challenge contains four folios of five shuffled picture plates. Easy allows 70 seconds for each folio and presents the original palette. Medium allows 60 seconds and begins with reduced color. Hard allows 50 seconds and presents a high-contrast archival silhouette. The clock waits for the first answer or Reveal Lens, stops when the fifth plate is identified, and resets before the next folio, so a slow clue never consumes time from later groups.
Balance slide lives, lenses, and streaks
Three glass-slide lives last across all 20 plates. A wrong answer removes 42 points, resets the streak, disables that drawer, and spends one slide; losing the third ends the run. Easy supplies four Reveal Lenses, medium three, and hard two. Each lens costs 25 points and exposes the object's category plus its first letter without selecting an answer. Correct identifications award a base score, remaining seconds, and a growing streak bonus, while folio clears add another time-sensitive reward.
Pause or restart without hidden state
Pause, P, or Escape freezes an active countdown while preserving the current illustration, drawer order, rejected choices, score, lives, lenses, and streak. Resume continues from the same second. Restart or R reshuffles the 20 plates and begins a clean run at the selected detail level. Switching Easy, Medium, or Hard also resets all state with the matching timer and lens allowance; nothing depends on a server session or remote opponent.
