Eye Test: How Fast Can You Read The Hidden Word In The Photo?

We have a super fun eye test for you to try out today, and it comes with a few bonuses as well. Not only is today’s challenge something you’ll truly enjoy, but it’s also packed with brain-boosting benefits too! We’re going to show you a couple of different pictures. Somewhere behind these crazy images, you will see a word hidden within. All you have to do is try and read the word as quickly as possible! Sounds easy enough, doesn’t it?

Trying to find a hidden word within an image is a bit like trying to find a needle in a haystack. You know it’s there, but in order to find it, you will need to use several different skills.

Why you Should do Brain Teasers Every Day

If you’ve ever lost your glasses, or misplaced a remote, you know how easy it is to overlook something. Even if it is right in front of your face. Hidden object eye test puzzles are similar to this. Your brain sometimes glosses over certain things and replaces them with visual static. In order to circumvent this, you will need to force your eyes to really see what is in front of them. Rather than letting your brain fill in the blanks.

Eye Test #2

This visual challenge is a little trickier. Due to the lack of color, and the increase of shape and movement in this picture below, it will be harder to find the hidden word. Remember to time yourself, and write down the word you think is hiding within the image.
