The three cups
Cup 1: 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: 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 2: Step Back
Step Back, Letter · 1 back: keeping a short list moving through your mind. 21 letters, 6 of them matches; letters used: C, F, H, K, N, R, T.
Tip: Do not chase a missed match. The next item is already on its way.
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 ‘green’ in purple ink.
Tip: Keep a finger hovering over the middle of the buttons so every colour is the same short move away.
