Did You Really See It?

Choose how long to look at six objects in a themed scene. Answer nine questions, then uncover where your memory and confidence match the evidence.

About this tool

Choose your pace, then observe and recall

Choose Take your time (8 seconds), Standard (5 seconds, the default) or Challenge (3 seconds). Each round draws a desk, outing or breakfast scene and shows six of its nine objects. After it is hidden, answer nine questions: six objects were there and three were not. Choose whether you saw each one and how sure you are. Answers have no time limit. Confirm to continue; the evidence is revealed after all nine answers.

Compare your memory with the evidence

The result restores the objects in their original positions. Browse the evidence one object at a time, or open all answers for a full comparison. The correct count includes all nine answers. The sure-answer count includes only answers you marked Sure, whether you chose Saw it or Didn’t see it. No sure answers and no sure mistakes are reported as they are.

One round, on this page

This is a short game, not a diagnosis or a ranking of memory ability. Answers stay in the current page and are not saved or uploaded. Leaving the tab during observation or questions voids the round. Starting again creates a new round; refreshing clears the current one.

FAQ

Common questions and answers about this topic.

Can I look at the original scene again?

Yes, after all nine answers are confirmed. During the questions the scene is hidden, so you answer from memory. The result brings it back in the same arrangement for comparison.

How are sure mistakes counted?

Only answers marked Sure enter that count. A mistake is either saying you saw an object that was absent or saying you did not see one that was present. Both count equally.

What if I was not sure about any answer?

You still see your total correct answers and the full comparison. The result says that you had no sure answers; it does not invent a confidence score.

Why does leaving the tab end the round?

The round is designed as one uninterrupted observation and recall session. Leaving during observation or questions voids it, so an interrupted round is not shown as a completed result. You can start a new one.

Are my answers saved or uploaded?

No. The round and your answers stay in the current page only. There is no answer history or upload. Refreshing or closing the page clears them.

Does this result measure my memory ability?

It describes only your answers in this round. This game does not provide a standardized ability score, health diagnosis, personality label or comparison with other people.
