A chart flashes up, the clock starts draining, read it right, then decide whether to bank your streak or gamble it on a harder card.
Each card shows a bar, line or pie chart and a question about it. Answer before the timer empties to extend your streak. After every correct read you choose to bank the points you've earned or risk them by climbing to a higher reward tier.
Quickplot is a timed chart-reading quiz that rewards quick, accurate data interpretation.
Reading a value, a trend or a comparison off a bar, line or pie chart under time pressure is graph literacy — the receiving end of statistical graphics.
The timer is the original element.
Speed is a fair thing to test here, because in life these charts are glanced at rather than studied. A chart that takes thirty seconds to read has failed at its job, and being scored on quick reads makes the difference between encodings obvious — length is read fast, angle and area much more slowly.
