How to play Reaction Challenge
Choose a round of Reaction Challenge and settle into its rules. Finish five valid responses. An early click does not count as a completed response; start that attempt again. Look at what changes after your first action. Make your first input carefully and watch the result. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.
Make the controls familiar
Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart. Keep the objective visible.

Step by step
