How to play Reaction Challenge
Start Reaction Challenge by looking at the playing area and its controls. Finish five valid responses. An early click does not count as a completed response; start that attempt again. Use the example below to understand a decision. Make your first input carefully and watch the result. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move.
Build a steady rhythm
Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Make the next step deliberately.
Your goal
Finish five valid responses. An early click does not count as a completed response; start that attempt again. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Try to explain the aim in your own words.
Step by step
- Start a round and wait without clicking.
- When GO appears, click or tap the large target.
- Read your response time and start the next round.
- After five rounds, the game shows the mean time.
Controls
Use the on-screen controls with a mouse or touch. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.
A useful example
A valid 250 ms response counts. Clicking during WAIT is too early and must be repeated. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Keep the game’s format in mind.
Watch out for this
Browser scheduling, screen refresh and input hardware can affect the measurement. It is not a medical test. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
