Focus / DAY 012
Scatter Schulte
1, then 16, then 2, then 15… and the numbers aren't in rows.
How to play
- 1
Sixteen numbers are scattered freely — no grid to scan along.
- 2
Tap them alternating from both ends: 1, 16, 2, 15, 3, 14 and so on.
- 3
The prompt always shows what's next. Fastest time wins.
Why it works
Two things make this harder than a plain Schulte table. Free positions remove the row-by-row sweep, so you cannot fall into a scanning rhythm. And alternating between both ends means you hold two separate counters at once, switching between them on every single tap.
FAQ
What's a good time?
Under 30 seconds is solid and under 22 is sharp. If you're over a minute, try the classic 5×5 table first.
Any strategy?
Locate the next high number while you're still reaching for the low one. Searching from scratch after every tap is what costs the time.
