Pymetrics digits game practice

Game 2 of 12 · about 3 min

Digits appear one at a time, then you type them back in order. Get it right and the next sequence is a digit longer. Three mistakes and the run is over.

Working memory Attention Processing

Unofficial practice. Not the real Pymetrics game and not connected to Pymetrics, Harver or any employer. Untimed, unlimited retries, nothing saved and nothing sent anywhere.

How the Pymetrics digits game works

  1. Watch the sequence. Each digit shows briefly, then clears.
  2. Type the digits back in the order you saw them.
  3. A correct answer adds one digit to the next sequence.
  4. A miss shortens it by one. There is no fixed number of rounds.
  5. Three mistakes ends the run, whenever they come.

What the digits game measures

It reads how much you can hold at once, and how you behave once the sequences pass your limit. Whether you guess, freeze or keep going is part of what gets captured.

Or play all 12 in one sitting

This page is the digits game on its own, practice only. The full run is the rehearsal. All 12 back to back in the order the real assessment most commonly uses them, timed, one attempt each, and no feedback until the end. About 35 minutes, and nothing is saved, so it needs one sitting.

About the Pymetrics digits game

Answered straight, including the parts people would rather hear differently.

Here, nobody can stop you. In the real assessment it defeats the point, and the games that follow are not the kind you can prepare around. Practising honestly is more useful.
We are not going to print a number. Published research on digit span varies by method, and quoting a figure from one study as if it were your benchmark would be dishonest.
