Hi - any tips on preparing for this assessment would be greatly appreciated. I understand there's no 'standard' prep material, but are there online games one can play to get a little familiar? Thanks very much.

Hi,
- There are 2 tasks, hour for each
- One is based on logic, another one is closer to the online game (Tower defense)
- Both tasks are super easy and an hour is more than enough
- The key thing is to read carefully the descriptions
I believe there is no way to prepare, so just relax and have a good rest before that
