Alarm Arcade: Beat the Clock

I built this because I kept turning off alarms half-asleep and going back to sleep. Instead of snoozing, the alarm only turns off after you complete a short mini-game (memory, math, reaction, tilt). Would love feedback on whether this actually helps people wake up.

What it does

Alarm Arcade turns ever Alarm Arcade turns waking up into an active challenge instead of a passive tap. Instead of stopping the alarm with a single button, users must complete short mini-games that force focus and mental engagement. Designed for people who snooze on autopilot, Alarm Arcade helps break half-awake mornings by waking the brain first — not just the screen.y alarm into a mini challenge. Wake up by beating the game—no snooze loops, no half-awake mornings.

Alarm Arcade turns every alarm into a mini challenge. Wake up by beating the game—no snooze loops, no half-awake mornings.

  • Hello my name is Ben Ward for the past 3 years I have been remastering the financial game Wall Street Raider created by Michael Jenkins originally on DOS in 1986. It has been a rough journey but I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I just recently redid the website and thought maybe the full story of how this project came to be would interest you all. Thank you for reading.
