App Description

Ever gotten crazy experiencing the "Stroop effect"? Well here's your chance. Race against time while colors will terribly confuse you!

In various challenges, your basic goal is to touch the colors you‘re reading on the screen. Easy you think? Not if the word is displayed in a different color than the one you‘re supposed to touch! ... cause that‘s when the "Stroop effect“ kicks in.

This irritating effect is caused by the fact that naming the color takes you much longer when the name of a color is displayed in another color than the one it denotes (like, when the color name "green“ is displayed in yellow). But, having to make a decision fast as time is running out isn‘t the only challenge! Thanks to the "Stroop effect“ you‘ll be more prone to errors, too! So focus and sharpen your senses, because this game will definitely get you in a rush.

~~ WHAT COMES WITH THIS GAME ~~

With Color Rush, you‘ll probably get the most fun out of the "Stroop effect“. Featuring a very neat user interface, this game includes:

+ Two different challenges

- Time Challenge
Try to hit as many right colors as you can in 30 seconds. A right touch gains you two points while a wrong one costs you one point.

- Stamina Challenge
Stay focused! One wrong touch will end the game if you‘re not careful. If you stay brave you‘ll get rewarded with an increasing bonus factor each stage, but you better hurry because you‘ll have less and less time for each color.

+ Game Center support

See how the rest of the world is doing! Including global leaderboards for each challenge and various fun achievements for you to unlock.

+ Local Highscore
