Instructions

Your Aim

We want you to MAXIMIZE reward and MINIMIZE effort over the whole task.

One side is better than the other and we want you to figure out which one it is!

Choose a shape

The outcome is an image (reward) and
the effort it requires

Exert effort by pressing C and M in alternation (CMCMCM...)
and fill up the bar

Achieve reward!
It's obvious which one is more rewarding...

REPEAT!
