Stop signal

Press fast for one colour and hold back for the other

What it looks at

How well you balance reacting quickly with holding back. Every circle has a correct response, and the kind of mistake matters too: pressing when you should hold back, or missing a circle you should press.

How to play

Circles appear one at a time in the middle of the screen, about every one and a half seconds. When a red circle appears, press Space or tap Press as fast as you can. When a green circle appears, do nothing.

The circles keep coming whether or not you respond, and the run lasts about 2 minutes.

Press for

Most accounts say press for red, and a few say green, so you can practise either
