    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 that was fun!
      Got a 43.59 as my score, playing on my pixel 9 pro with colors set to "natural".
      Gonna try it again with the other color settings on it :3

              Got 44.4 ! Thought I'd do worst, I think the game is a bit generous
              A lot of my job is choosing colors, but my hobby are pretty colorful too 😎

                      As long as you don't want me to name them, pretty awful at remembering that 😂

                      I work in mysterious ways (by that I mean squinting really hard until I know I got the right color)

                          @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.

                                          @kottke 41.73 - first time I didn't even know what to expect... and I feel synesthesia doesn't help with it any way.
