Colour perception game/test

[LoversKites]

This is a nice little game that tests how good you are at detecting subtle differences in colour, something we all encounter with gems. You have to select the odd colour tile out, and it gets progressively harder to see the differences. You have 60 seconds to go as far as you can. Try it out.

First time I did it I got 37, second time 29. I don't know if those are good or bad scores.

whoa... that got surprisingly difficult, LOL

22 on my first attempt...

 

[evergreen]

32 my first try... and I think I'll wait a while before trying again, my eyes feel a little googly after that.

Very nice - will it stop???

Just kidding - around 23-25 - a good training!!!

Wow - this made me realize something. I have a harder time distinguishing differences in pinks and purples. No wonder so many of the hot pink spinels look the same to me!

I remember some years ago many of us did a color test

Yes I got a 0 in that one (perfect score) but in this new one I can't get better than 32. My friend has just got 42!!!!!!!!

I remember when I did this. My score was 4 and my mistakes were in the blue-green spectrum.

This is addictive, 25 then it's downhill from there! I'm going to try again.
Seems to be harder for me to spot the difference in purples and blues.

I just got 25. My work monitor is kind of crappy. I am going to try this at home on my ipad and see if it makes a difference.

The key is to turn down the brightness on your monitor a bit.

With age, apparently, your perception of blues and greens diminishes quicker than other colours. What's clear to me is when I do this new test that I struggle more with the blues - which makes sense. I've now got 36 but this new test is tough!

Hi,

This teaches me that I had better bring someone much younger with better eyesight than myself, IF i WANT A TOP COLOR GEMSTONE, ALTHOUGH i THINK NOW THAT MAY BE A WASTE ON ME. Age is a bi***.

23 on my first attempt. Some of those were tough.

 

[LaSuecia]

Fun test!
Some of these are really hard to distinguish from eachother
The blues and green were awful! Got a 22 first time and 26 second time lol need practice

 

[PyramidLake]

Got 25 first time! May try tomorrow with fresh u tired eyes, good fun and interesting though!

I got a 32, but my monitor is old.

So are my eyes I kept looking at the clock and I definitely had more problems with some colors than others. I got stuck on a green one and wasted a lot of time, then did a few after that easily. I probably shouldn't buy emeralds. The other color test I got a 0.

I got a 28 the first and only time I took this test and now my eyes are hurting me. I need a new glasses Rx for sure everything was getting pretty blurry by the end of that very long minute LOL. For all the presbyopes out there I bet you will do better with an accurate glasses Rx if you need one.

Thanks for sharing it LoversKites.

I got 32. I took the old test and scored a 0. I don't think I did so well the last time but I didn't wear reading glasses then.

 

[cflutist]

21 but is that good or bad?

 

[Marlow]

iphone, ipad or computer? ipad is perfect - 25-30 ( I have a "problem" with deep blue and dark grey/black)...

Same here, and that's my favorite color range, too.

I remember wondering if our "favorites" tend to develop in color ranges where we have a harder time distinguishing impurity of color, LOL

 

[minousbijoux]

With practice, I got to 46, but I sat there watching tv and playing it over and over.

 

[minousbijoux]

Oh, and I found it fun and a bit addictive - but then again, I'm easily amused.
