Beat the Clock turns Patches into a race. You start with a time bank and solve one board after another — each solved puzzle adds bonus seconds to the clock, so a fast, clean run keeps you going. The run ends the moment the clock hits zero.
Pick a difficulty — Easy, Medium, Hard, or Expert. Easier modes bank more time per solve and start on smaller grids; harder modes are stingier with time and escalate to larger boards faster. As you solve, waves raise the difficulty, so the challenge keeps climbing no matter how good you get.
Anyone can play a run for free. Sign in to post your best runs to the weekly and all-time leaderboards and track your personal bests across every mode.
