PulseTiming

PulseTiming is a vertical claw mining casual mobile game that combines swinging aim, charged hook shots, and weight trade-offs into one tense rhythm. Players control a claw hook above a minecart; the hook swings continuously left and right, and its swing range and speed increase as the score rises. Hold the screen to charge, then release to fire the hook rope along the current swing angle; the fuller the charge, the farther the hook extends. In the mining area, gold nuggets, silver nuggets, crystals, and rubies drift horizontally back and forth; when hooked, they are dragged back to the minecart and added to the score. Treasure chests and rocks stay in place, with chests heavier and rocks the slowest to retrieve. Rubies are worth the most, followed by crystals and chests, while gold and silver nuggets are base points. Bombs are hazards to avoid; hooking one or missing completely counts as a mistake and breaks the current combo. Hooking treasures consecutively builds a combo, and each time the score accumulates a certain amount, the challenge wave also increases. By default, three mistakes end the round; if you enable Life Mode in the main menu, you can choose between three lives and five lives, with remaining chances shown as hearts during the match. The controls only require holding and releasing, but the timing of the shot, the charge length, and whether to go for heavy targets all directly change your score and survival rhythm.
