How to play Perceptle

Controls for each test

Count flashes dots, then accepts a typed quantity. Track accepts a click or tap where the ball will land after it disappears. Angle uses a draggable handle and submits on release.

Tempo accepts Space or a tap on the board: follow four different practice beats and continue through eight silent taps. Split accepts a position on the line, measured from the endpoint named in the instruction.

• Count: wait for the answer field before entering a number.
• Track: estimate the unseen landing, not the last visible position.
• Angle: measure counterclockwise from the dashed horizontal.
• Tempo: enable sound and use one input method.
• Split: check both the proportion and the starting end.

Daily, random replay and Archive

Play opens the date-based Daily challenge. Everyone using the same local calendar date gets the same five puzzles. Keep playing creates a fresh random set, and the single-test pages isolate one skill. Daily Count uses 45–85 dots and Daily Tempo uses 75–130 BPM (about 462–800 ms per beat). Keep playing and the individual practice pages use random Count targets of 50–300 dots and random Tempo intervals of 500–850 ms.

Archive recreates its selected date and may show a saved result from this browser. Random rounds do not replace Daily records. Today is captured when the page loads; refresh after midnight to switch to the next date.

Read feedback before the next attempt

The reveal shows the real target and a miss in the test’s own units. A gradually decreasing scoring curve keeps smaller misses useful to compare instead of treating every imperfect answer as a failure.

Friday introduces moving dots, ricochets, multiple turns, offbeats and fractions beyond a whole line. The same guides explain these changes. If a test is silent or a gesture fails, the Help page covers browser and device checks.
