Puzzlers were challenged to spot the correct version of the classic board game OperationZasluge: Patient Claim Line
Patient Claim Line is a UK medical negligence solicitors firm, owned and operated by Fletchers Solicitors.
They created a fun seek-and-find puzzle to test observational skills.
Children and adults alike have enjoyed playing Operation for nearly 60 years, with the game making its debut in 1965.
It’s probably been a while since you picked up a pair of tweezers and challenged yourself to pick up as many parts as possible without turning off the buzzer.
So how quickly can you spot the authentic version of the family favorite board game?
Set a timer to see if you can beat the nine-second record.
The creators of the challenge revolved around the 13 diseases shown in the game, which are as follows:
- Adam’s apple
- Broken Heart
- Broken ankle
- Butterflies in the stomach
- Spare Ribs
- Water to the knee
- Funny bone
- Charlie Horse
- Writer’s Greek
- The ankle bone connected to the knee bone
- The wishbone
- Brain Freeze
- Bread basket
The water on the knee seems to stay in the same place in all three pictures.
You’ll have to be an anatomy expert to spot the telltale signs that the two games aren’t right.
Anyone can see fake grass, but you can have 20/20 vision if you can spot a fallen needle in less than 17 seconds
Here’s a tip: The Adam’s apple should be on the throat.
If you need another clue, consider that writer’s cramp would be felt in the wrist.
