Number series

Work out the rule and fill the gap in the row

What it looks at

Numerical reasoning: how quickly you find the rule behind a row of numbers and use it. Each row has one intended rule and one right answer, so this game is scored more like a short reasoning test than a behaviour game.

How to play

Each item shows a row of numbers with one missing. Work out the rule, type the missing number and press Enter or Submit. A row can run below zero, but the missing number is always a whole number of zero or more.

There are 20 items and 30 seconds each. The next item comes as soon as you answer, you can’t go back, and an item you run out of time on counts as unanswered.
