What the Arctic Shores assessment is

The Arctic Shores assessment is a task-based psychometric test: instead of answering questions, you play short interactive tasks while the platform records how you respond. Each task takes 5 to 15 minutes and the employer picks which ones you get. Your responses are compared with similar candidates and read against the role, and you get a feedback report, not a pass mark.

Questions

Are these Arctic Shores practice games free?

Yes. All 9 games on this page are free to play in your browser, with no account and no card. A free account saves your recent scores; a paid plan unlocks your complete history and the full readiness report.

Is this the real Arctic Shores test?

No. GamePrep is independent and not affiliated with or endorsed by Arctic Shores. These are practice versions built from how candidates and prep providers describe the tasks. Nobody outside the vendor has the real games, and we publish no leaked questions or answers. Your invitation's own instructions are the final word.

How are the practice games scored?

Each run is scored on our server against a fixed norm table for that game and shown as a percentile from 1 to 99 the moment you finish. It is GamePrep's own reference point, not Arctic Shores's benchmark: no assessment vendor publishes its cut scores. In Balloon, Energy (Power Generator) and Team Sales the real assessment has no right answer, so read that percentile as a record of how you played, not a target.

Can I retake the practice games?

Yes, as often as you like: every run is scored on its own, so you can see whether you are improving. The real Arctic Shores assessment is generally taken once per application, though some employers let you reuse a result from the past 12 months.
