There's no trickery -- it's a series of tests of how well you can eyeball angles and distances. It runs you through the series three times, and your score is your average error measurement. The errors are in "units" otherwise unspecified, which I assume are calibrated for the difficult of the tasks.
My first score was 3.67; my second score was 1.87, which is enough to get me the #2 spot on the "last 500 games" top score list, and a spot near the bottom of the "last 10,000 games" list as well.
Suggestions for play: Rotate your head. Squint. Try closing each eye in turn.
Before trying to play for score, run through it once just to see the visualization it gives you of the correct answer for "Triangle center" -- it will give you a better intuition for what point the game is asking you for.
