The three cups

Cup 1: 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 ‘orange’ 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.

Cup 2: Reaction Time

Reaction Time, Go or stop: waiting calmly and moving the instant something changes. The first eight waits fall between 1.68 and 3.46 s, and 3 of those eight signals say Stop.

Tip: Breathe out while you wait. A tense hand jumps early more often than it reacts faster.

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: Look at the shape, not the tiles one by one. Three tiles often make a corner, a little line or a triangle that is easier to keep than three separate spots.

Every cup in set #82 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.
