The first physical test in the Project Prometheus Recruitment series was designed to test the user’s agility. Users ran on an endless treadmill from a first-person perspective in a holographic simulation. As they ran, they encountered holographic obstacles which must be avoided with the left or right arrow keys.

The first iteration of the cognitive test series is a twelve question multiple-choice interview in which users must choose between three possible answers to a question with significant implications about the events of the film.

The second cognitive test measured the user’s ability to recognize patterns and make snap judgments about objects’ physical relationships. The test is presented as a holographic representation of an abstract shape; the user must then rotate this shape with the left and right arrow keys so that it fits into a hole in the floor of the test chamber.

The final cognitive test - and the final test of the Project Prometheus Recruitment series - challenges users to solve a puzzle made up of a set of numbered 3D cubes by manipulating all pieces in the set into their numerical order (1, 2, 3). The Prefrontal Cortex Assessment will consist of two stages - a simple 3x3 grid followed by a 3x3x3 array floating in space in front of the user. The test was won or lost based on the total number of moves it took to complete the puzzle.
