Hex Test

Description

Hex Test is the kind of little web game that looks easy for about five seconds, then quietly turns into a challenge you cannot stop replaying. The idea is beautifully simple. You see a solid color on a card, you see hex codes as options, and you swipe or drag the card to the code you believe matches that exact shade. It feels like a quick reflex game at first, but it quickly becomes a test of how well you actually understand color, contrast, saturation, and the tiny differences between two almost identical tones. What makes Hex Test especially satisfying is that it teaches while it teases you. If you are a designer, a front end developer, or anyone who has ever copied a hex value into CSS and hoped for the best, this game turns that everyday task into a skill you can sharpen. You start noticing patterns, you start trusting your eye, and you start making smarter guesses by reading the code like a clue. The built in help nudges you in the right direction without killing the fun, reminding you how hex colors map to red, green, and blue, and how the characters run from 0 to 9 and A to F. After a few rounds, the codes stop looking like random strings and start feeling like a language you can actually read. The experience is clean and quick, which is exactly what makes it shareable. You can play through a set of levels, get immediate feedback when you are right or wrong, and then share your score to challenge friends. It is the perfect time filler that still feels productive, because even a short session trains your color intuition. For teams, it is also a surprisingly fun way to warm up before a design review or a UI sprint, because it gets everyone thinking about color choices with a bit more precision. Hex Test also works as inspiration for anyone building interactive experiences on the web. It is proof that you do not need a huge concept to create something memorable. A single mechanic, polished feedback, and a clear purpose can attract traffic and keep people engaged. It was built by MadeByShape as a side project, which makes it even more appealing if you love web experiments that are playful but thoughtfully crafted. If you are searching for a hex color game, a color quiz, or a fast way to practice hex codes for web design, Hex Test lands right in that sweet spot where learning feels like play.
