Blink
Shapes flash on a grid for a moment. Put them back from memory. Each round adds more shapes and less time. How far can you get?
Don’t blink
Watch the shapes, then put each one back in its square. Get a round perfect to move on. Miss and you lose one of three lives.
Get ready…
Tap a square to place a shape, and tap it again to take it off. On a keyboard: arrow keys move, Enter places, 1 to 4 pick a shape.

How to play
- Shapes flash on the grid for a couple of seconds. Remember where each one is.
- When they vanish, put them back. Pick a shape, then tap its square. Tap again to take it off.
- Get every shape in the right place to clear the round. Any mistake costs one of your three lives, and you try that round again with a new pattern.
- There are twelve rounds. The grid grows from 4×4 to 6×6, the shapes go from three to twelve, and the flash drops from two seconds to one.
Questions
When do the patterns change?
At midnight UK time. Everyone gets the same patterns in the same order, so you can compare how far you got with friends.
Why did I lose a life when I reloaded?
Once a pattern has been shown, leaving the page or going back to the menu before you check your answer counts as a miss. Otherwise you could reload for a second look.
Any tips?
Don't try to remember every square. Look for shapes in lines, corners and pairs, and say them in your head ("two circles top left"). Practice games use fresh patterns and don't affect your score.
