How this test works

This game looks at two parts of finding your way: reaching places you saw on a map by a short route, and keeping track of where you started. Each level shows a maze map with your tent and numbered flags. Then you walk to the flags in the dark, seeing only a small circle of light, and point back to your tent. You score route efficiency and pointing error. The navigation game Sea Hero Quest used similar measures in 2018.
