About Color Match
Decide whether the displayed word names the same color as the color used to draw the word before the short round timer expires. The game uses six named colors and creates matching word/color pairs 50% of the time.
Each round starts at 100 timer units and loses 2 every 60ms, giving roughly three seconds to answer. A correct answer scores 10 + current streak×2 before the streak increments; a wrong answer resets the streak without subtracting score.
How to Play Color Match
1Read the color word and look at the color used to render it.
2Tap YES if the word and text color match, otherwise tap NO.
3Answer before the timer bar reaches zero and keep a streak for larger rewards.
Color Match Rules
- Correct answers add 10 plus 2 points for each existing streak step.
- Wrong answers reset streak to zero but do not subtract score.
