Four colored pads flash in a sequence. Your job: tap them in reverse order. If the pattern was red → blue → yellow, tap yellow → blue → red. The sequence grows by one step each round.
What it trains
Reverse Order trains working memory and mental manipulation. Holding information in mind is easy; holding it while reversing it is much harder. This skill is used in mental arithmetic, chess, and any task where you need to rearrange information on the fly.
Tips to improve your score
Say the sequence out loud in your head as you watch it. Then read it backwards.
Chunk the flash pattern into pairs, then reverse each pair's order.
Don't start tapping immediately — take one full second to reverse the sequence mentally before you begin.
