Guess the calories.
Higher or lower?

How it works

Three seconds to learn. Considerably longer to get good at.

  1. 1

    See two foods

    One with its calories on show, one with its number hidden.

  2. 2

    Higher or lower?

    Tap More or Fewer: does the hidden food carry more calories per 100 g, or fewer?

  3. 3

    See the gap

    The real number lands. The closer the two foods were, the more it was worth.

Two ways to play

A quick daily, or as long as your lives last.

Arcade

Endless

  • 3 lives, as many rounds as you survive
  • Pairs picked close on purpose, so few rounds are free
  • Chase your high score and your best streak
Daily

Daily Challenge

  • All 10 rounds, no lives to lose
  • The same ten foods for everyone that day
  • A shareable grid, and a streak worth keeping
