I try to avoid the temptation of IQ tests on the internet since they make me feel cocky for the rest of the day.
Anyway:
www.iqtest.dk
I feel much more awake after going through it. The only question I had trouble with was the last one. I’m sure I have the right answer, but it feels like there’s more to the question that I’m missing. So here’s what I got out of it (spoilers): every shape is a shape-shifting entity moving one square to the right each turn.
If someone could fill me in on the rest, that’d be great. This has been killing me for about an hour.
IQ tests as regular measurement tools are terrible ideas. You’ll quickly burn through the doable ones available online, and you will have destroyed their reliability for yourself by test-retest and other learning effects. Almost any other test would be superior—play Grid Wars, for example.
I only went through this test once; though, I did reload and skip straight to question 39 a couple times. I tried it out since it was in the OP and I had some time to kill.
Grid Wars is probably even better than Quake. If you’re not alert, you’ll know it in a few seconds rather than minutes, and there seems to be surprisingly little learning—my own high scores seem to be quite randomly distributed in time.

Upvoted for recommending Grid Wars.
