Light brew · three games · about 4 minutes

Cups in this set

Each cup counts when you play it at the level shown here.

A light brew to start with. All three cups are poured at gentle levels, so this set is about settling in rather than stretching.

In this pot: hold it in mind, a steady eye, quick hands. It opens with Ink & Word and finishes with Reaction Time.

The three cups

Cup 1: Ink & Word

Ink & Word, Easy: keeping your eye on the ink while the word pulls the other way. Forty-five seconds with 4 colours; the first card is the word ‘green’ in green ink.

Tip: Let your eyes rest on the edge of the letters, where the ink is, rather than reading the middle of the word.

Cup 2: Flash Grid

Flash Grid, Easy: holding a scattered pattern for a second. The first pattern has 3 tiles on a 3 × 3 grid and stays lit for 1.11 s.

Tip: If you miss twice in a row, take a sip of tea before the next round. The game waits for the countdown, not for you to rush.

Cup 3: Reaction Time

Reaction Time, Simple: waiting calmly and moving the instant something changes. The first eight waits fall between 1.74 and 3.48 s.

Tip: In go-or-stop, wait for the word as well as the colour. A held tap on Stop is part of the score.

Every cup in set #124 has a fixed seed, so anyone who opens this set gets the same patterns, trails, sums and waits. Your own ticks and results are kept only in this browser.
