How to Play
Multitasking Challenge is a brain-training game that makes you juggle multiple mini-games at the same time. Each mini-game runs in its own panel and demands your full attention. The catch is you have to keep track of all of them simultaneously.
Before starting, choose which mini-games to include and arrange them in your preferred order by dragging. You can play as few as one or as many as all eight. The more games you stack, the harder it gets.
The game ends the moment you make a single mistake in any panel. Your score is the total number of correct answers across all games before that first mistake.
The Mini-Games
- An equation appears showing numbers with + and â operators, and a proposed answer.
- Decide if the answer shown is correct or wrong.
- Tap the green â button if it is correct, or the red â if it is wrong.
- Answer before the countdown timer hits zero or the game ends.
đĄ Tip: Don't second-guess yourself. Your first instinct on simple sums is usually right.
- A grid of coloured shapes is displayed: circles, squares, triangles, stars, and more.
- Exactly two of the shapes are identical in both colour and type.
- Find and tap one of the matching pair to score a point.
- Tapping any shape that is not part of the duplicate pair ends the game.
đĄ Tip: Scan by colour first, it's faster to group colours than shapes.
- A ball drops from the top of the panel at a steady pace.
- A bucket sits at the bottom. Tap and drag the bucket left or right to position it.
- Catch the ball in the bucket each time it falls to score a point.
- If the ball reaches the bottom without being caught, the game is over.
đĄ Tip: The ball falls from a random position each round, so don't assume it'll be in the same spot.
- A colour word (e.g. "RED", "BLUE") appears printed in an ink colour.
- The word and the ink colour may or may not match.
- Tap YES if the word's meaning matches its ink colour, or NO if they differ.
- React before the timer runs out.
đĄ Tip: Focus on the colour of the ink, not what the word says. Your brain wants to read it, not see it.
- An arrow pointing in one of four directions appears on screen.
- You must press or tap the opposite direction to the arrow shown.
- Arrow pointing UP? Tap DOWN. Arrow pointing LEFT? Tap RIGHT.
- React quickly. Hesitation lets the timer run down.
đĄ Tip: Practice saying "opposite" in your head as the arrow appears to override your instinct.
- Coloured wire endpoints appear on the left and right sides of the panel.
- Drag from one wire end to its matching coloured end on the other side.
- Connect all matching pairs before the timer expires.
- Crossing wires or connecting wrong colours counts as a failure.
đĄ Tip: Start with the most crowded colours first to leave room for easier paths.
- A sequence of tiles or lights flashes on the screen one at a time.
- Watch the full sequence carefully without touching anything.
- Once the sequence finishes, repeat it by tapping the tiles in the exact same order.
- Each correct round adds one more step to the sequence.
đĄ Tip: Try to see the sequence as a rhythm or pattern, not a list of individual tiles.
- A grid of face-down cards is laid out. Every card has one matching pair hidden in the grid.
- Flip two cards at a time by tapping them. If they match, they stay face up.
- If they don't match, both flip back over. Remember where they were!
- Match all pairs before the timer runs out.
đĄ Tip: When you flip a card and don't get a match, mentally "tag" its position for later.
- Moles randomly pop up from holes arranged in a grid.
- Tap each mole before it disappears back underground to score a point.
- Missing too many moles in a row ends the game.
- Higher levels make the moles faster and the grid larger.
đĄ Tip: Don't fixate on one hole. Keep your eyes on the whole grid.

Tips for High Scores
Start simple. Begin with just 2â3 games until you build a rhythm, then add more as you get comfortable splitting your attention.
Scan in order. Give each game panel a fixed order in your head and scan them in sequence rather than jumping randomly around the screen.
Don't panic. The timer gives you more time than it feels like. A calm, steady pace beats frantic tapping every time.
Play the leaderboard games. You need to be playing 4 or more games simultaneously to qualify for the global leaderboard, so work up to that threshold to compete.
