📖About

Reaction Speed is a precision timing test that measures how quickly you can respond to a visual stimulus. Wait for the screen to change from red to green, then click as fast as possible. Your reaction time is measured in milliseconds, giving you an accurate assessment of your reflexes. Track your average and best times across multiple attempts.

🎯Objectives

React as quickly as possible when the green signal appears. Measure your reaction time in milliseconds. Track your average and best times. Compare your results with average human reaction times.

🎮How to Play

What is a good reaction time?⌄

A typical visual reaction time is often around 200-250 ms. Scores below 200 ms are strong, and very low scores should be averaged across several attempts.

Why should I play multiple rounds?⌄

Reaction speed varies with focus, device latency, fatigue, and anticipation. Several rounds give a more reliable benchmark than a single click.

❓Frequently Asked Questions
