The three cups

Cup 1: 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 2: Quick Sums

Quick Sums, Addition: steady mental arithmetic against a gentle clock. Sixty seconds; the first problem is 4 + 8.

Tip: Percentages are friendlier as fractions: 25% is a quarter, 75% is three quarters, 20% is a fifth.

Cup 3: Light Trail

Light Trail, Easy: keeping an order of shapes and notes. The first trail is 3 steps long on 4 panels; each panel glows for 0.52 s.

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

Every cup in set #35 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.
