Chain Sum
Link neighboring numbers. Use the exact tile count and hit the target sum.
Digits flash one by one. How many can you hold in your head?
Digits appear on screen one at a time — memorize the sequence.
When they stop, type the digits back in the same order.
Each success adds one more digit. Two misses and the run ends.
Digit span is the classic working-memory test used in cognitive psychology for over a century. The average adult holds about 7 digits — pushing past that trains the mental scratchpad you use for math, reading and conversation.
Around 7 digits, plus or minus 2. A span of 9 or more is exceptional.
Chunking: group digits into pairs or triples (like a phone number) instead of holding them one by one.
Link neighboring numbers. Use the exact tile count and hit the target sum.
Watch the pattern light up. Echo it back. It only gets longer.
Ignore the shapes. Count one colour. Then report your number.
