One question, a grid of charts measuring different things, only one of them can actually answer it, and you have to click the proving point.
Each round poses a question and shows a dashboard of several charts covering different metrics. Most are distractors that look relevant but track the wrong thing. Find the one chart whose metric matches the question, then click the specific bar or point that proves the answer before the timer runs out.
Decode the Dashboard is a data-interpretation puzzle about separating the real question from the noise of a busy display.
Finding the one chart that answers the question among several that merely look relevant is the everyday problem of the dashboard, and an exercise in statistical graphics as much as in reading them.
Populating each round with deliberate distractors is the original design.
Real dashboards fail this way rather than by being wrong. Every panel is accurate and most are irrelevant to the decision in front of you, so the skill being trained is choosing what to read — which no single-chart exercise can teach.
