    The Color Game. “Humans can’t reliably recall colors. This is a simple game to see how good (or bad) you are at it. We’ll show you five colors, then you’ll try and recreate them.” I scored 39/50 but got a perfect score on one color. https://dialed.gg/

      @kottke 41.55. It’s hard to get the hue right for unsaturated colours.

              Got a 46+

              Seems like some of it is skill at using the controls. I was expecting it to be choosing from a line up.

                      @inarticulatequilter @kottke I’d play it again if it had a way to turn off both the sound effects and the snark.

                          @kottke This is awesome, and yes tougher than I thought, tricky too , and I am suspicious that it maybe purposely show a different colour when matching 😉

                                @kottke Pantone has built an industry in this.

                                I'd say "monopoly", but I know it's not (despite their attempts). A different colour reference system (the Munsell system, looking like "10YR 3/4" etc) was chosen for rock descriptions in the 1930s, and isn't going anywhere this Myr.

                                        @kottke 41.72, but probably could have scored higher on the first colour while I was still working out the sliders.

                                          @kottke 47.05/50 I just like colours... I think that knowing different names besides the basic ones helps because I could articulate in my head what colour I was looking at.
