Why this color matters

Microsoft works as a Brand Tone round because its microsoft blue is a strong memory cue, not just decoration. The game hides that signature hue and asks you to reconstruct it from memory.

The target answer is #00A4EF. In HSB terms it sits at HSB(199°, 100%, 94%), which is the value used for scoring in the round.

How to remember this brand color

A short memory plan before you play the round.

  • Anchor your memory on the visible logo shape, then recall where microsoft blue appears in that mark.
  • Start with hue first; brand colors usually punish a hue miss more than a small brightness miss.
  • Keep saturation confident unless the logo color is visibly muted or corporate-blue.
