### 5/5 — Fantastic!

*2018-02-02*

This is a great means to pass the time. The. Graphics beautiful and differences are hard to locate but not that teeny to play on my cell phone. Love it.

### 5/5 — Fab!!

*2018-01-31, version 1.0.0*

Great little game, I sit and play with the kids, only downside it can get quite competitive!!!

### 5/5 — Mental Alertness

*2018-01-27*

This game activates one's ability to discriminate between seen and unseen within scenes.  Mental alertness seem to improve as one is able to compartmentalize segments in quarters to isolate the presence or absence of objects. Great game.

### 4/5 — Where is the rest

*2018-01-25*

I bought two extra games.  Is that it.

### 4/5 — Spot the difference

*2018-01-05, version 1.0.0*

Good game, makes you look for the differences not easy to find some

### 5/5 — Always enjoyable

*2017-11-12, version 1.0.0*

Challenging yet doable.

### 5/5 — Keeps me entertained....

*2017-10-03, version 1.0.0*

Wonderfully clear pictures with some easy to spot differences and some difficult ones thrown in!

### 4/5 — Fun game, some bugs

*2017-09-08*

Great game, lots of detail in the images and surprisingly difficult, so good for adults. Did find that in 3 or so pictures it wouldn't register my 'clicks' on the left hand edge which was quite frustrating and resulted in up to 10 'missed' clicks, which effects your score. Not a huge deal overall as there are 30+ images to go through, but worth noting :)

### 4/5 — Review

### 2/5 — Not worth the aggrevations

*2020-03-28*

Color might be slightly off, thus is a hide, but hard to find, hue to similar. I am on an iPad and photos can be blurry and hides can be very tiny. Also, every time I open up each day, same photos appear, do not want to reply over again to advance on a new image. Moving on to another company, lots if others, don’t need to be frustrated by this one.

### 2/5 — Needs a couple of tweeks

*2016-08-04, version 1.0.0*

I love spot the difference games but found this layout of vertical instead of side-by-side headache inducing. A shame that in this era the designers did not build in different screen alignments ie view portrait or landscape

### 3/5 — Spot the difference

*2025-03-02*

Not bad but wish pic where side by side old eyes and to keep refocusing made my eye tired.

### 3/5 — jasncarolina

*2017-03-29*

Screen is too touchy. Especially for shakey fingers. Points counted against me!!! Will not let me enlarge to help me see better. Says I am cheating??? Also, some of the, no--- lots of the pictures had fuzzy backgrounds.  Which were hard to see, even with reading glasses. 
Oh well, I am deleting game and will try a different one.  I would rather not waste any more time with this one.

### 3/5 — Great to increase powers of observation.

*2016-11-04, version 1.0.0*

Good and fun way to increase your powers of observation.

### 3/5 — GREAT APP BUT WHY PAY AFTER 2 THEMES

*2016-02-25, version 1.0.0*

I loved this game, but after successfully completing to themes/sections, was charged to a Fee to play on not fair!

### 4/5 — LOVE IT

*2021-11-04, version 2.1.0*

Great photos with the right amount of challenge to find the differences. At first I found the 60 second limit a bit off putting but have learned to relax and enjoy the search. Looking forward to more levels.
