Online brain tests

Nine short games for memory, reaction, aim and typing. Pick one, learn the rules, and compare your own runs. No account, download or saved leaderboard.

Reaction time test

Try a local visual click-response check.

Sequence memory test

Watch a pattern, then repeat it in order.

Aim test

Hit 20 targets and compare speed with accuracy.

Number memory test

Recall a number that grows by one digit.

Verbal memory test

Decide which words you have already seen.

Typing test

Measure typing speed and accuracy in one minute.

Visual memory test

Remember highlighted positions on a four-by-four grid.

Colour-word challenge

Choose the ink colour when the word disagrees.

Go / no-go test

Tap for circles and hold back for squares.

Choose the task, not a label

Remembering a sequence is different from recognizing a word. Hitting a target combines seeing, moving and clicking; a reaction test keeps the target still. Typing adds a familiar skill and a speed–accuracy trade-off. A single score cannot stand in for all of these.

Make comparisons useful

Keep the same device, input method and browser size. Learn the rules before treating a run as a reference, and take breaks when you feel tired. Practice can improve your performance at the game; it does not establish a change in general intelligence.

What these games are not

These are informal online brain games, not validated cognitive assessments or medical screenings. We do not assign an IQ, a brain age or a percentile. Scores stay in page memory and disappear on reset or navigation.

Three ways to challenge attention

Visual memory asks where tiles appeared, without requiring an order. The colour-word challenge asks for ink colour while a word competes for your attention. Go/no-go asks when to act and when to leave a signal alone. Each page explains its timing rules and reports only what happened in that run.
