Button Smash is a controller-centric test. Why? Because the essence of the gamer test is how well we know our controller, how fast and accurate we are when a certain button needs to be pressed. We have to imagine it like when the game shows you what to press specifically on a console game, e.g. during a fight tutorial.
This test assesses how comfortable you are with a controller. But it is also a great development opportunity, even for someone who is just starting to play with a controller, to get used to the buttons on it. Don’t have to look down before making a move. Also for those who already feel a strong medium, but want to be stronger. And also for those who regularly play console games, even e-sports, e.g. Fifa/FC24 players. Button Smash is also a good warm-up for them.
The test primarily measures reaction time, just like the QuickFire Challenge, since the essence here is also speed. Secondly, it also measures and develops hand-eye coordination and accuracy.
Of course, Button Smash might seem easy among those who play a lot on the console, but we also thought about that, so we can go through 4 levels of difficulty. There are easy, medium, hard and impossible levels. How long would it take for you? Try it out and test your controller skills at online.bardtest.gg!
