Schulte Table
Free Online Visual Search and Attention Task
🎯 How to Play
Find and click numbers in ascending order (1–25). Prioritize accuracy, then compare your completion time with your own attempts using the same grid size, device, and settings.
Track Your Personal Baseline
There is no universal clinical cutoff for this online game. Compare attempts only when grid size, device, and settings are the same. The leaderboard reflects site players, not population norms.
Leaderboard
The leaderboard ranks your adjusted time: completion time plus a small penalty for each mistake.
Cognitive Benefits
Visual Search Practice
Practice locating numbered targets among distractors and following a fixed sequence under time pressure.
Attention to a Sequence
Stay with one ordered task while tracking the next target and avoiding premature clicks.
Transfer Limits
Faster grid times show improvement on this task; they should not be treated as proof of faster reading or broad cognitive change.
