Learn the rules of Reaction Challenge
Try Reaction Challenge at your own pace and keep its objective in view. Finish five valid responses. An early click does not count as a completed response; start that attempt again. Look at what changes after your first action. Check the rule that explains your first action. Use the example below to understand a decision.
Practice beyond the first move
Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use. Refer to the controls when needed.
The goal to keep in mind
Finish five valid responses. An early click does not count as a completed response; start that attempt again. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Return to the instructions when a step is unclear.
Making your moves
- Start a round and wait without clicking.
- When GO appears, click or tap the large target.
- Read your response time and start the next round.
- After five rounds, the game shows the mean time.
The controls to know
Use the on-screen controls with a mouse or touch. Use the control method described here for this activity. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.
Try this example
A valid 250 ms response counts. Clicking during WAIT is too early and must be repeated. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Choose a deliberate next step.
A mistake to avoid
Browser scheduling, screen refresh and input hardware can affect the measurement. It is not a medical test. Compare the situation with the worked example. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
