Higher or Lower

About Higher or Lower

Higher or Lower is a quick game of nerve and number sense. A number from 1 to 20 appears — you predict whether the next one will be higher or lower. Guess right and your streak grows; guess wrong and the round ends. It's a simple, exciting way to think about number order and probability, and to see how long a lucky (and smart) streak you can build.
