iPhone X has a new way to play, this time you have to play games with your eyebrows: Rainbrow

Animoji is another native feature of iPhone X that uses the TrueDepth camera. By using the TrueDepth camera to capture key data of the face and build a dynamic model, Animoji can achieve real-time Emoji expression tracking. It has also spawned interesting gameplay such as Animoji karaoke and Animoji funny dubbing on social media.

Now, finally a developer has designed a new facial expression game using the Original Depth camera and ARKit. This mini-game called Rainbrow requires you to constantly change your expressions of surprise and anger, so that the Emoji yellow face in the game can shuttle back and forth on the rainbow stairs to eat stars and get high scores.

Rainbrow is very easy to play. The entire game interface is divided into seven levels: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. At the beginning of the game, an expressionless Emoji, 😐, is located on the middle green level. When you frown, the Emoji instantly changes to angry 😠 and descends from the level; when you raise your eyebrows, the Emoji changes to surprised 😯 and keeps rising.

Some white stars will appear randomly on the rainbow stairs. Your task is to keep changing your expression, let Emoji rise or fall to eat the stars, and avoid obstacles such as cars 🚗, clouds ☁️, ducks 🦆, etc. on the stairs, and then get points. The seven steps in the game correspond to seven notes. Every time the Emoji falls on a step, the game will play piano sounds. As long as you are "quick in eyes and eyebrows", you can not only let the Emoji eat stars, but also "play a song" with your eyebrows.

Rainbrow is much more entertaining than Animoji, because Animoji requires at least two people to interact, and if you want to make Animoji karaoke or funny videos, you may need a certain script and acting skills. Rainbrow only requires you to move your eyebrows. The Emoji obstacles in the game move at different speeds. For example, the football ⚽️ rolls very fast, while the ghost 👻 floats much slower. Therefore, you have to adjust the speed of switching expressions accordingly to avoid "collisions".

Rainbrow is easy to play and fun. Whether you challenge your own high score or ask your family and friends to challenge your high score, Rainbrow can be said to be a small and fun game for all ages. When I first played a few games, I found that the game difficulty and plot seemed to have not changed much, and I felt a little bored. But after I lent my phone to a friend, he easily broke my record and unlocked Rainbrow's little easter egg 🌈, which made me look at this game with a new eye.

You can download Rainbrow for free on the App Store. There are no in-app purchases or ads in the game, so it can be said to be a fun and conscientious game. However, it should be noted that you should remember to relax your face after playing the game for a while, and don't tire your eyebrows for high scores😌.
