Stop Rounds is a simple timing game about stopping a countdown. Simply try to stop the countdown just before it reaches zero.

The countdown will starts once again, but the previous remaining count will be subtracted from the new countdown meaning there will be less time remaining in each new round. The closer you stop before zero, the more time there will be in future rounds.

Try to survive as many rounds as possible.
