About the game
What you do in a play session
Sync or Swim is a frantic cooperative experience that puts you and your friends in the shoes of a synchronized swimming team. Each round, you'll need to plan the perfect routine, trading cards and coordinating moves against the clock. The captain gives directions, but it's teamwork that'll secure that perfect 10. And trust us, it's not easy: as you progress, routines get trickier and surprises start popping up. The best part? A free app judges your performance based on timing and precision. Get ready to yell, laugh, and be amazed by the wild tactics your group comes up with to boost that score!
