Best Rection Time Training Games
1. Reaction Time
Let’s start with an app that easily lets you measure your reaction time. It will track your progress as you practice. The Reaction Time app exactly lets you do that without any pop-ups or annoying full-screen ads. Moreover, it’s completely free. The app is extremely easy to use. In order to measure your reaction time, simply press and hold your finger on the screen. As soon as the screen turns green, release your finger. Although it sounds easy, the app shows other colors to confuse the mind, so try and maintain focus only on the green screen. You have five tries in total after which, the app will calculate and display your average reaction time. Get Reaction Time for Android | iOS
2. Reaction Time
While the previous app is basic and only allows you to measure your reaction time, this one takes it up a notch. In addition to measuring reaction time, you can also track previously measured time along with the date and time of the test. Another major difference from the previous app is in-built mini-games that target your reaction time and accuracy. The game also has two reaction time test modes — touch and click. The touch mode is similar to the first one where you have to release the finger after the screen changes to green. On the other hand, click mode adds an extra step where you have to touch the screen again after the color changes. This allows you to test and improve your reaction time for first-person shooter games in a dynamic environment. This app is only available to Android users, so if you are on an Apple device, here’s an app to measure reaction time on iOS. Get Reaction Time for Android
3. Reaction Training
Whether you wish to test your reaction time or indulge yourself in a few games to improve it, this app has everything for you in one place. There are over 30 games such as color change, find the number, catch the ball, etc. which allow you to test and improve your reaction skills in a fun manner. The graphics of the game are old-school. You can also change theme, number of rounds for each game, add countdown before exercises, etc. The stages are locked. One way to unlock them is by finishing each stage within a specific time. So, a user may only be able to go through all the stages by mastering one stage at a time. If you are curious to try other stages, you also have the option to watch ads or open all exercises for a $1, a one-time fee. Get Reaction Training for Android
4. Piano Tiles
Piano Tiles doesn’t need an introduction. It couples classical piano pieces with easy on-screen piano. For those of you who aren’t aware, the user has to tap on selected tiles or notes on the screen which move vertically. You press the wrong tile and the game ends. The reason why I suggest playing Piano Tiles to improve your reaction time is that it helps a lot in improving hand-eye coordination. The game has several game modes, choices for song selection and you can even battle others players online. The gameplay will get harder with time. Get Piano Tiles for Android | iOS
5. Reaction Trainer
Reaction Trainer is another battle royal game that tries to improve your reaction time with muscle memory. The game is simple. All you have to do is tap on the glowing circles and burst them as quickly as possible. The catch is that the speed keeps increasing with time and as you hit more and more right circles. I highly recommend playing these games with both your thumb at the same time. It will not only make you faster but also help improve reaction time for games like PUBG and other shooting games. Apart from that, the game has multiple difficulty levels that can be tweaked plus, a timed play mode as well. Get Reaction Trainer for Android
6. Brain Spark: Fast Reaction
Brain Spark is an arcade game that works both on concentration and reaction skills. It’s similar to the previous games where you need to tap on the correct color. You can add a twist to the color game by playing the reverse mode where you have to select the wrong color instead. The gameplay also throws some bonus points towards your way if you are quick enough while tapping. Lastly, the background music will keep you engaged until the game gets too hard to handle. All in all, it’s a simple game, or is it? Get Brain Spark: Fast Reaction for Android | iOS
7. Dumb Ways to Die
Dumb Ways to Die is probably my favorite reaction time improvement game. It not only has multiple mini reaction time games but also animated characters that’ll keep you hooked. There are 82 mini-games (time-based) in total so you won’t be bored too soon. The game is fun and many users have also commented that it helps them calm down and deal with their anxiety. Once you are done with Dumb Ways to Die, do not forget to download and try out other versions of the game by the same developer. They are themed and come with a completely new set of challenges.
