Complete seven attempts within 45 seconds to receive a daily emoji result and accuracy score. Each lock shows its points; later rounds on the same day are practice. Your recent first-attempt scores appear after each round. ### Controls and round details Tap the stage or the Lock the Pulse button. You have 45 seconds to complete all seven locks. Watch the edge of the moving ring as it approaches the fixed green outline instead of watching the center. ## Pulse Lock Daily scoring You get seven locks, each worth up to 100 points, for a maximum of 700. Tap when the blue pulse matches the green target ring; the score falls as the size difference grows. A near-perfect lock can score 90 or more, shown with a green mark in the result. Your first completed attempt each day is saved on this device as that day’s shareable result. Later plays are practice. The results screen also shows recent daily scores, so you can compare your own progress across days. ## Pulse Lock Daily strategy and tips ### Pulse Lock Daily tips 1. Follow the pulse rhythm for one cycle before your first tap. 2. Aim for the middle of the green band, not its outside edge. 3. Share your result and return tomorrow for a new daily pattern. ### Understand a daily result Each lock scores from 0 to 100 according to how closely the blue ring matches its green target. Feedback says whether you locked too small or too large, which helps you adjust on the next pulse. Seven locks can total 700; the result uses colored marks to show the quality of each attempt, so the pattern tells more than the total alone. The target and pulse rhythm change across the seven locks but follow the same daily challenge for everyone. The first finished run on this device becomes the shareable daily result. Further attempts are practice and cannot overwrite it. The 45-second limit still applies, so spend a cycle learning the rhythm without waiting so long that you run out of locks. ## Common Pulse Lock Daily mistakes - **Tapping on the first pulse.** Watch one full cycle to learn the rhythm. - **Aiming for the edge of the green band.** The middle of the band scores best. - **Watching the centre of the ring.** Follow the moving edge as it approaches the target. - **Waiting too long.** You have 45 seconds for all seven locks. ## About Pulse Lock Daily Pulse Lock Daily is a Tap Rush Arcade original made for a quick daily habit: one short round, one score out of 700, and a row of coloured marks you can share. Everyone gets the same challenge on the same date. Your first finished run of the day is saved as your daily result, and later runs are practice. ## Pulse Lock Daily: questions and answers ### Can a practice score replace my daily result? No. The first finished attempt on the device remains the daily share result for that date. ### Why did my daily challenge reset? The challenge changes at midnight on your device’s calendar. ### What is a good score? Each lock scores up to 100, and a lock of 90 or more is marked green as near perfect, so a total above 600 means most of your locks were close. ### Can I play more than once a day? Yes. Later rounds are practice; your first finished round stays as the daily result. ## Play next - [Orbit Escape](https://taprusharcade.com/games/orbit-escape.md): Lock the satellite at the moving gate. - [Word Beacon](https://taprusharcade.com/games/word-beacon.md): Find the five-letter word in six tries. - [Tap Rush](https://taprusharcade.com/games/tap-rush.md): Hit moving targets and keep your streak.
