💥 Survive at work

Every office has a colleague who claims elite reflexes because they once caught a falling mug. Survive is the 40-second audit of that claim. It fits inside a coffee break with room to spare, installs nothing IT would frown at, and produces the one thing office arguments never have: numbers.

Engineered for the gaps in a workday

A duel runs 30–40 seconds — the length of a microwave lunch cycle or a "call is starting soon" screen. No install, no account, no notification spam afterwards: open tab, settle score, close tab, deniability intact. The challenge link is asynchronous, so your 10:15 coffee and their 15:40 slump can still be the same duel.

The office championship

Drop one link in the team chat and let the results accumulate — every reply is a colleague's reaction endurance on the record. Run it as a Friday ritual, a sprint-retro tiebreaker, or the official decider of who books the meeting rooms. Escalation paths: games with coworkers and 1v1 games to settle arguments. For the record, post-lunch reaction times are measurably worse — schedule your title defence accordingly.

How to play Survive

  1. Blocks appear at random positions and vanish after a shrinking lifetime.
  2. Tap every block before it disappears.
  3. Miss enough and the run ends — you have limited lives.
  4. Score climbs the longer you survive; the pace climbs with it.

Frequently asked questions

Is a duel really short enough for a work break?

30–40 seconds full stop — shorter than fetching coffee. The asynchronous links mean nobody has to be free at the same moment, either.

Does it need anything installed on a work machine?

No — it's a normal HTTPS browser tab, nothing downloaded, nothing running outside it. Your IT department has bigger fish.

How do we run an office tournament?

One challenge link in the team chat = one tournament. Everyone plays the same rounds against the creator's score; the thread becomes the bracket.
