The Eyeballing Game

This is interesting and addictive. Some people are bothered by pictures on the wall hanging slightly crooked. Others may not even be aware that something might be amiss. This game tests the ability to see if things are straight or crooked. The best way to figure out how the game works is to simply play it. The game shows you a series of geometries that need to be adjusted a little bit to make them right. A square highlights the point that needs to be moved or adjusted. After your done, the 'correct' geometry is also shown. You do each challenge three times. It tallies up your average error. The lower your average error, the better. I got a 4.9. How did you do?

I tried this, I was 8 something I think. Which surprises me, I thought I'd be worse because I really have no spatial sense.

I got an 8.3 Which isn't bad, i guess. I thought I'd do worse because my embarrassment is that I didn't understand some of the terms, haha.
