What’s special about TiLi?
It uses a single button for input, and tests the accuracy of your internal clock.
Although it’s a “timing” game, it’s unique because skilled players need to develop an ability to press the button, and press it again after a precise amount of time has passed.
It’s like starting and stopping a stopwatch without looking at the readout, and seeing how close you can get to 3.0 seconds.
The interesting part is that people have an innate skill to sense passing time, but the precision of it is not used in everyday life. After playing a lot of TiLi, people’s sense of passing time become more acute.
