Because I stared at the pic for 10 minutes, gave up, Googled the answer and now I don't know how I could have been so blind!!

About 10 minutes!!

ophiotaurus · 14/07/2016 23:59

Found it in about a minute

Duckyneedsaclean · 15/07/2016 00:00

I had to cheat. To be fair, it's the cover that does it.

MaisieDotes · 15/07/2016 00:02

Took me about two minutes. I thought it had something to do with the table. What's the point of the bloody table!?

JellyTeapot · 15/07/2016 00:02

About a minute.

Me too. Suspicious bastards? Us? Smile

BumpAndGrind · 15/07/2016 00:03

About a minute here too.

But once you know how these illusion games work they are all pretty easy.

LilaTheTiger · 15/07/2016 00:05

I can't see it. Where?!

ExitPursuedByABear · 15/07/2016 00:05

Haven't found it yet. But my iPad goes awol when I try to zoom so I gave up.

MackerelOfFact · 15/07/2016 00:07

Probably 2-3 minutes on a tiny screen. Had no idea what the iPhone I was looking for looked like though - the link neglected to mention that it had a blue flowery cover and was face down on the rug!

Just5minswithDacre · 15/07/2016 00:09

Mackerel! I think figuring that out is part of it Grin

I really want that phone case though Smile

PitilessYank · 15/07/2016 00:11

I spotted it immediately but I think that was just dumb luck.

LilaTheTiger · 15/07/2016 00:11

Found it!

Zoomed Grin

LineyReborn · 15/07/2016 00:12

I can't see it even with a big red circle round it.

DisneySenior · 15/07/2016 00:21

This took me hours Blush

MaisieDotes · 15/07/2016 00:22

I've pm'd you liney

MC1R · 15/07/2016 00:22

Instantly - this is the thing about having autism, the minutest discrepancy in pattern stands out a mile to me.

BlackAmericanoNoSugar · 15/07/2016 00:25

About a minute, maybe less. I didn't see it when I just looked aimlessly, but when I considered which part of the rug pattern a phone was most likely to align with then I saw it straight away.

LineyReborn · 15/07/2016 00:29

Thank you, maisie. I finally see it!

GoldBear · 15/07/2016 00:30

certainly less than ten seconds - I'm on a laptop though

Beansprout30 · 15/07/2016 00:30

Can't bloody see it, not even if I zoom in! Like that stupid cigar in the wall picture Angry

omri · 15/07/2016 00:38

About 2 mins - looked for a discrepancy in the rug. That part is darker.
Love these games!!!

whatnoww · 15/07/2016 00:42

I cheated. Couldnt see it at all!!

NovemberInDailyFailLand · 15/07/2016 00:44

I'm also Autistic and saw it instantly. Weird.

ThumbWitchesAbroad · 15/07/2016 00:48

About a minute but was helped by the comments that said "it was the cover" - then found the pattern discrepancy. I had been in the right area but not spotted it before.

Doubt she dropped it though - bet it was a plant!
