Background
Is it clear how to play?

About 3 minutes. Not medical advice. Stop if you feel dizzy, nauseous or strained.

How it works

A number appears all at once for a few seconds. When it hides, type it with your keyboard or the keypad. Level 1 has 2 digits; each level adds one, up to 20 digits (19 levels). One wrong answer ends the test. Your answer time is measured too.

What it measures

This is a digit span test, a classic short-term memory measure; backwards adds working memory (you must flip it). A quick measure of how you did on this test today, on this device. Practice makes you better at the test itself; it is not a medical or IQ test.

Not medical advice. Stop if you feel dizzy, nauseous or strained.
