Hit small targets without giving up accuracy.
This task records accuracy on a fixed, repeatable version of the task. Your result is comparable to your own previous attempts on the same device.
It does not diagnose anything, and it does not claim to improve anything beyond performance on this task. Reported times include display and input latency from your own hardware.
Stop if you feel dizzy, nauseous or strained.
Hit the target. Each hit makes the next one smaller; each miss makes it bigger. The size settles on the smallest target you can hit reliably.
Smallest reliable size (diameter the staircase settled on). Lower is better. Each difficulty (Easy, Normal, Hard) keeps its own personal best, and custom settings are saved but not ranked, so your bests stay comparable.
This is an adaptive staircase: the result is a threshold, not a score, so it moves slowly and honestly with practice. Getting better at these drills is well supported. Whether it carries into a particular game depends on that game, your sensitivity and your setup, so we don't promise it.
Aiming follows a well-known rule called Fitts's law: the further and smaller the target, the longer it takes to hit. That is why we report throughput and time per target, not just hits.
There is always a trade-off between speed and accuracy. Getting better at an aim drill is well supported. Whether it carries into a particular game depends on that game, your sensitivity and your setup, and research does not show reliable carry-over from training tasks to real-world performance.
