Stroop Test Online
Color Match is a 30-second focus game: match the ink color, not the word.
How it works:
A color WORD appears in a different color. Click the button matching the ink color, not the word.
Build combo streaks for bonus points. Keyboard shortcuts: 1-6.
How the Stroop test works
In a Stroop-style task, the word meaning and the ink color can conflict. For example, the word may say one color while being printed in another.
Color Match asks you to respond to the ink color and ignore the automatic pull of reading the word. That makes it a quick focus game for attention and response inhibition.
What the Stroop effect shows
The Stroop effect is widely discussed in cognitive psychology because it demonstrates interference between an automatic response and a deliberate rule.
This game adapts that idea into a short browser challenge. It does not provide a clinical assessment, but it can help you notice how accuracy and response time change from one run to another.
How to play Color Match
Slow down just enough to read the ink color first. If you notice yourself clicking the written word, reset your rhythm and focus on the color patch.
