Have you got what it takes to find the hidden toy in this mind-bending optical illusion? It can be hard at first, but we can assure you, it’s definitely there…
Optical illusions and brainteasers can be serious head-scratchers at times.
Some could take you a few seconds to solve, while others have you stumped for ages. Just recently, people were left scratching their heads for ages trying to find the engagement ring. But despite the stress of trying to conquer a puzzle, regular brainteasers can be great for your mind.
Now are you looking to test your eyesight? If so, you’ve come to the right place. Over on Reddit, a user shared the ultimate challenge for people on the FindTheSniper forum. The page is commonly used for brainteasers, optical illusions and all things that’ll leave you slapping your knees.
In a recent post, the user wrote: “My kid’s dropped a leopard toy on the playground.” And it’s your task to find the camouflaged toy lurking on the ground. If you’re stumped, it’s worth scanning each area of the image, but mainly focus on the centre.
Since it was shared, the upload racked up over 60,000 upvotes and 3,400 comments. One said: “Oh wow this was a good one.” While another added: “I can’t even see it, knowing where it is, without zooming way in on the picture.”
A third commented: “Found it, zoomed out, lost it.” According to one commenter, to find the toy, just know it’s a lot smaller than you’re expecting. They also advised people to look around the centre of the image, then you’ll find it if you zoom in.
Regular puzzles can be good for you. A study by the University of Exeter and King’s College London found similar exercises could even improve brain function by a decade. Experts also believe they encourage lateral thinking, which can keep us feeling creative and fulfilled. And there’s nothing more satisfying than tackling a new problem!
