This online puzzle challenges people to spot a panda hidden in a crowd of heavy metal fans
Puzzles have always been able to send the internet into a frenzy. Most recently, social media was flooding with people finding their way back to solving huge puzzles during the pandemic!
Hidden Picture puzzles are believed to help kids pay attention to details, and increase vocabulary as they search for clues, as per Highlights. It helps them spend more time with activities that develop their cognitive skills, self-confidence, and visual perception. But we can all agree that puzzles don't have to be age-specific. They can be enjoyed at all ages, so here's one that you'll find interesting.
Epsen Westum, a head brewer at Westum Hjemmebryggeri, from Fredrikstad, Norway, designed a visual puzzle that made everyone go crazy on the internet. Almost similar to the popular series "Where's Waldo?" the picture is hiding the head of a panda among that of heavy metal head artists. The original version had a panda hidden among snowmen but when the visual went viral he redesigned it with the metal artists and took it up another notch.
Posting the image on Facebook he wrote, "Most people have seen the 'find the panda among snowmen' picture. I was inspired to make one myself, only with black metal artists. After drawing most of the day, here is the result! HAILS!” The puzzle received a lot of love and was shared more than 8,000 times. Epsen had posted the picture back in 2015 but it was only recently that he made it public only to go viral.
