SURFACE.MOBILE.GAME.LAST-TENSummary
The clock's final ten seconds: the ring goes white and stops.

Why it is drawn this way
White, not red. There is no red in this palette — not for a warning and not
for a destructive action. .timer--warning swaps the conic sweep to #ffffff,
which is the only escalation available and the only one needed.
Running out is the whole of what running out does. It stops. It does not force the reveal, it does not buzz, and "Add 30 seconds" is still there. See talk.
Its own screen, not a state. empty · loading · error · offline · locked
cannot name "the last ten seconds", and the screen differs in more than a
number — the ring's colour and the copy both change.
