The rules

Study the target, adjust the red, green and blue controls, and submit your closest mix. The result reveals the target RGB beside your values and scores the total channel difference.

What makes it different

Colour Match turns an intuitive visual judgement into understandable numeric feedback without revealing the answer before commitment.

How does RGB colour matching work?

Every displayed colour combines red, green and blue values from 0 to 255. Adjusting one channel changes the mix, while the result shows exactly how far each submitted value was from the target.

What is a perfect Colour Match score?

A total RGB difference of zero is a perfect match. Lower scores are better because they mean your red, green and blue estimates were closer to the target values.
