Tickets
Tickets is Arctic Shores’ task-switching test: shapes containing numbers appear briefly at one of two stacked positions, and WHICH yes/no question you answer depends on where the ticket appeared — the top position asks about the number, the bottom about the shape. The rule reminders disappear as you progress.

How to play
A ticket with a shape containing a number appears at the TOP or BOTTOM position.
TOP ticket: answer the number question (e.g. is it even?).
BOTTOM ticket: answer the shape question (e.g. is it smooth-sided?).
Rule reminders fade out later — keep applying them from memory, fast.
In the real assessment
The position-dependent yes/no structure, vanishing rule cues, and 80-ticket count are confirmed across multiple preparation sources; the exact per-ticket pace is reconstructed (about 1.5 seconds). Employers configure tiers — 20/50/80 tickets are reported.
