About this game
Number Order is a quick search game. A square grid holds every number from one to sixteen, or one to twenty-five on the larger board, in a random layout. You find and tap them in order. The clock starts with your first correct tap and stops on the last number.
The trick is where you look. Many players keep their eyes near the middle of the grid and let the numbers come to them, instead of scanning row by row. Others glance ahead to the next two numbers while tapping the current one. Try both and see which feels faster.
A wrong tap does not stop the game, but it adds one second, so steady beats frantic. The cell you need next is never highlighted; the status line tells you which number to find. Your best time for each board size is saved in this browser.
The four by four board takes most people under half a minute. The five by five board is a better test of patience.
What this does not measure
This is a game. It is not an IQ test, an attention test, or a vision test, and it says nothing about your health. Screen size and how you hold your device change the result.
