Little Shift: Thinking Games

Nine short games that get harder as you get better. Each one lasts 60 or 90 seconds, keeps its own level, and gives you a score to beat.

THE GAMES

• Bright Spot: tap every smiling face on the board while angry, sad and worried faces get in the way. Find the last smile and a new board appears.

• Another Angle: read a situation, then sort each thought about it as helpful or a thinking trap. From level 6, name the trap for a bonus.

• Silver Linings: see a harsh or gloomy word and build a kinder, balanced one from chunks or letters, like IMPERFECT → GOOD (not PERFECT). Higher levels add misleading extra letters.

• Follow the Flow: swipe where the middle arrow points while the arrows around it disagree. When the frame shows “Aa”, go with the word instead.

• Color Current: tap the color of the ink, not the color the word names. Later levels mix in feeling words and a WORD rule that flips the task.

• Pocket Patterns: squares light up one at a time; tap them back in order, or backwards when asked. Two right in a row and the pattern grows.

• Rule Remix: match a card by shape, color or number. Early levels show the rule; later you work it out from the feedback, and it changes without warning.

• Fact Finder: read a short scene, then sort each statement: did the scene show it, is it a guess, or does the scene say otherwise?

• Signal & Still: tap for smiling faces, freeze for angry ones, and stop when a red frame appears.

HOW SCORING WORKS

• Right answers earn points; mistakes and missed answers cost points.

• Streaks multiply your points: ×1.5 from 5 in a row, ×2 from 10.

• A game's level goes up when you're quick and accurate, and down when it's too much.

• One personal best per game, plus your highest level.

• Relaxed mode removes the clock and speed points, with its own levels and bests.
