The three cups

Cup 1: Odd One Out

Odd One Out, Medium: searching a grid calmly for the one thing that differs. Twelve rounds on grids from 4 × 4 to 6 × 6; differences: a mirrored symbol ×4, a turned symbol ×4, a ring with its gap moved ×3, a dot more or less ×1.

Tip: Care pays more than haste: each wrong tap adds two seconds, longer than most rounds last.

Cup 2: Step Back

Step Back, Position · 2 back: keeping a short list moving through your mind. 22 squares, 6 of them matches, on 8 places of the board.

Tip: Do not chase a missed match. The next item is already on its way.

Cup 3: Flash Grid

Flash Grid, Medium: holding a scattered pattern for a second. The first pattern has 5 tiles on a 4 × 4 grid and stays lit for 1.1 s.

Tip: Tap the tiles you are sure of first, then the doubtful one. A wrong first tap costs the whole round.

Every cup in set #131 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.
