The three cups

Cup 1: Light Trail

Light Trail, Medium: keeping an order of shapes and notes. The first trail is 3 steps long on 6 panels; each panel glows for 0.44 s.

Tip: Say the trail quietly to yourself by shape: circle, star, drop. Words travel further than pictures for many people.

Cup 2: Quick Sums

Quick Sums, Multiplication: steady mental arithmetic against a gentle clock. Sixty seconds; the first problem is 9 × 2.

Tip: A skipped problem costs less time than a long stare. Press OK and keep the rhythm.

Cup 3: Ink & Word

Ink & Word, Medium: keeping your eye on the ink while the word pulls the other way. Forty-five seconds with 6 colours; the first card is the word ‘purple’ in purple ink.

Tip: On the hardest level, learn the button order in the first few seconds. It stays the same for the whole game.

Every cup in set #132 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.
