Gameplay
At the start of the game, three hands at the top of the screen are holding pencils - occasionally, one of them holds a worm instead. The pencils can either be long or short. After a few seconds, one of the pencils is dropped. The player has to tap the falling pencil to stop if from falling and, therefore, win the game. The words "NICE CATCH!" appear on the screen in red if the player manages to catch it; if they don't, the game is lost.
