It gives no instruction on what you're supposed to do at the beginning - you sort of just figure it out on your own. You're also timed too harshly for a game that's supposed to make you stop and think. I personally feel that your score should be based on how many times you got the answer wrong instead of if you got the correct answer in under 5 seconds.
