How to Play

You face off against an opponent in a tense pistol duel. When the signal flashes GO!, click as fast as you can to shoot first. In this game, you control both characters — your left click fires your shot, and your opponent's AI fires back. The faster your reflexes, the better your chance of landing the first hit. But if you fire before the GO signal, you lose the round — false start!

The game tests pure reaction time. Studies show the average human reaction to a visual stimulus is around 250ms. Professional duelists can push this below 200ms. Your goal is to consistently react faster than your opponent. The tension of waiting for the GO signal is what makes pistol duels so intense.

Pro Strategies

  • False start penalty: Firing before the GO signal costs you the round. Wait for it!
  • Stay relaxed: Tension slows reaction time. Keep your muscles loose before the signal.
  • Focus on the center: When the GO flashes, your eyes should already be targeting the center of the screen.
  • Practice reaction time: Use online tools to measure and improve your baseline reaction speed.
