First — can this device actually buzz?

\n Desktop Chrome exposes navigator.vibrate and then does nothing with it, and iOS\n Safari has no Vibration API at all. So the API answering “yes” proves nothing —\n only your hand does. Play the test buzz and tell us the truth.\n

How Puzzmo uses these

A haptic belongs on a moment that already has a sound. They are the subset of\n audio cues the player caused and would want confirmed in their hand — not a\n second, parallel feedback system. About half of each game’s sounds carry no haptic\n at all, and that is design: a phone buzzing at something the player did not do reads as a\n bug.
When in doubt it is selection. Roughly two-thirds of every cue in\n the catalogue. Circuits ships five haptics in total and they are all\n selection; Pile-Up Poker fires thirty-five. Both are right.
Off iOS the host drops any cue within 30 ms of the last one. So these\n numbers are a budget, not just a feel — a burst finer than that gets thinned on the\n web path, and the three notification patterns are long enough that they cannot stand in\n for a quick tick.
The host fires selection before any game does. The on-screen\n keyboard taps once per key on touch start, and every button on the site fires one on\n click — both typed to accept nothing but selection. A game must not add\n its own in the keyboardKeyPress handler, or the player feels each keystroke\n twice.
Haptics are a user setting, and web is off today. Nothing fires if a player has\n them set to Off. The iOS app routes to the real UIKit generators; everywhere else falls\n back to navigator.vibrate, and that fallback is behind a flag that is\n currently false — so on Android today, nothing buzzes at all.
Really Bad Chess shows the whole vocabulary at once. A capture plays the same\n sound whichever way it goes, and only the haptic says whether it happened to you or for\n you — success for theirs, error for yours.

Usage notes from Puzzmo’s internal haptics guidelines. Open any row’s\n pattern editor for the per-name detail.
