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: Listen as well as look. Each panel always plays the same note, so a trail is also a little tune.

Cup 2: Number Span

Number Span, In order · Medium: carrying a number while it grows. The first number has 4 digits, each shown for 0.65 s.

Tip: Chunk the digits as they arrive: 4-7-2 becomes forty-seven, two. Two chunks are easier to carry than five singles.

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 ‘red’ in purple ink.

Tip: A wrong tap costs a full second, so a calm correct tap beats a quick wrong one.

Every cup in set #17 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.
