- Its clip maker records 9:16 dances on-device; the page says nothing uploads unless the player posts it.
Field notes
The page lays out several distinct loops: tapping the wheel, hiring helpers for idle production, hitting a beat, collecting dancers and solving the gnome’s name. It specifies a 120 BPM rhythm and says the name must be guessed after three nights. A separate clip maker lets players add a caption and record a vertical video on-device; the page says uploads happen only if the player posts.
