You’ll need 20/20 vision to spot it in eight seconds or less.
How fast can you solve the challenge?
Use the timer to test yourself against the time.
It’s hard to know where to start looking for fresh fruit with half-eaten watermelon and banana peels strewn across the floor.
Colorful spots on the wall draw attention upwards, but don’t mistake the fruit on the windowsill for fresh.
A basket of rotting food placed on the dining chairs is also a strategic distraction.
You have 20/20 vision if you can spot all 5 differences between two office scenes in less than 21 seconds
