Magnifier Hunt
An auto-panning magnifier hunts for hidden trinkets in a cluttered scene.
A magnifying glass auto-pans across a busy tabletop; tap the moment it crosses a hidden trinket to snag it; hold when it crosses a decoy to dismiss it before the round timer runs out.
Tap on a target; hold on a decoy.
