A color matching game

After completing all the sections, you receive a score on a 10-point system.

Odd one out

Odd one out – the classic game “find the difference”: a field is displayed on the screen, on which all cells are the same color and only one is different. This is what you need to find.

With each new level, the difficulty increases: it becomes quite problematic to distinguish the desired cell from the rest.

ColorRun

ColorRun Is a mobile game developed for iOS and Android devices. The essence of its game is exactly the same as that of A Color Matching Game – you need to find a lighter shade of the displayed color on the screen. But there will be 2 blocks in total on the field: i.e. you do not need to first inspect the entire field, as in A Color Matching Game (which is logical, because the screen of a mobile phone is not so big), but immediately click on the right or left half of the screen – whichever is lighter.

ColorMindblow

A game ColorMindblow will help develop attentiveness to color and text: you need to press the T (if true) or F (false) buttons if the word written on the screen indicates the background color of the screen.

It’s pretty easy to play in English, because we don’t read words very much, but in Russian such a game would cause big problems.
