What the “Pair: Country - Currency” exercise trains
Like all exercises in this section, this mind trainer targets multiple systems, providing a comprehensive load.
Erudition – this trainer does not rely solely on knowledge of countries and their currencies, but such knowledge significantly increases your chances of scoring high and winning competitions. Even if you didn’t know many currencies before starting, you can easily acquire this knowledge during the tasks.
Logical thinking – to provide correct answers, understanding the connection between currencies and specific countries is crucial. However, attentiveness and logical matching of on-screen information can help find the correct answer to many questions, even without prior knowledge in this area.
Intuition – subtle details in names, even on a subconscious level, can guide you toward the correct answer. The more you practice, the more pronounced this effect becomes.
Game rules
The difficulty of the training depends on the prominence of the countries the player encounters. More well-known and larger countries are considered easy, as they are familiar, and their currencies are frequently mentioned. Conversely, small, lesser-known countries fall into the difficult pair category. At the start of the game, you can choose the difficulty: easy, all, or hard. While easy and hard are self-explanatory, the “all” difficulty alternates between difficult and easy pairs.
Rotation – a complication that slows down finding the correct answer, as some answers will be displayed rotated when activated, making them harder to read.
During training, questions appear on the playing field – either a country or a currency name. If the task shows a country, select the currency used by that country from the four answer options. Conversely, if you see a currency, choose the country where it is in use.
The speed of completing the training is crucial, as time is limited, and points must be earned confidently and quickly.
Scoring
The formula for scoring points for a correct answer is as follows:
Your total points + DC*Level
DC – difficulty coefficient, which depends on the difficulty settings chosen before the test. You can see this number in the top-left corner of the playing field. Increasing the difficulty settings raises the difficulty coefficient.
Level – a variable value that starts at a minimum at the beginning of the training and increases by one position with each correct answer. An incorrect answer lowers the level by one position.
The formula for deducting points for an incorrect answer is as follows:
Your total points – (DC*Level)/2
The total points never go into negative values.
Multiplayer
This is a great opportunity to invite one or two opponents and hold a real-time competition. The player selects all difficulty settings and then sends the multiplayer game link by copying it or clicking one of the social media icons below.
The competition can start once all participants confirm their readiness.
The playing field with pairs refreshes individually for each participant, and each player provides their answers, earning an individual difficulty level. Victory is determined by points.
The number of points earned by a player changes color: green indicates that the player is leading, while red suggests insufficient points for victory. During the competition, you can observe your opponent’s progress in real-time. The mozgotren.ru platform allows competitions with up to three opponents simultaneously.
