Rules and objective
Decide whether a displayed color word matches its actual ink color. Word identity and ink color are generated independently, with non-matching rounds guaranteed to use different values.
How scoring works
One point is awarded for each correct answer across a 12-question set. Scores are saved only in this browser's local storage, so changing devices or clearing site data starts a new local record.
What we checked in this build
We verified both Match and No match paths and confirmed that final results reset cleanly for a new set.
This note describes the Starbox implementation rather than the rules of every similarly named game elsewhere.
Name two separate facts
A prompt contains a written color word and an ink color. Read the word first, then name the ink color, and only then decide whether they match. Combining all three steps into one impression makes automatic reading interfere with visual color recognition.
Use stable response mapping
Keep the same finger or key position for “match” and the other for “different.” Do not swap hands between rounds. Stable motor mapping removes an extra decision after you have already solved the prompt and reduces accidental wrong-button taps.
Slow down after a conflict
When the word and ink disagree, the written meaning may remain active for a moment. Add a brief confirmation: word red, ink blue, therefore different. This is faster overall than rushing into a mistake and resetting your rhythm. Accuracy creates a reliable baseline from which speed can grow.
Interpret the score modestly
Language familiarity, display quality, color vision, attention, and input device affect performance. The game demonstrates an interference effect for entertainment; it is not a diagnostic test. Compare short sessions in the same language and environment rather than treating one score as a personal trait.
