Seek-and-find puzzle challenges you to count all the bees

This seek-and-find puzzle is far more difficult than it looks at first glance. 

Viral cartoonist Gergely Dudas, from Hungary, better known as Dudolf, challenged his fans to count the number of bees in this vibrant field of flowers. 

The puzzle was shared on his popular website this week. 

The task seems simple enough but almost everyone who tried the challenge was surprised to learn just how many bees there are tucked away between the petals.

The trick is to divide the image into sections and work through them methodically so you don’t skip over any bees. 

To make things extra difficult, Dudolf has partially hidden some of the bees and has given others playful facial expression as a distraction technique. 

For an extra layer of fun, you can take a guess at how many bees there are before you start counting.

It comes after a numbers-themed puzzle left players scratching their heads.

The vexing new challenge has been created by UK-based marketing company Reflect Digital to mark the start of National Coding Week, an annual event that aims to encourage more people to learn to code. 

With only one back-to-front number to find, puzzlers will have to look extra closely at the challenging puzzle to spot the odd number out. 

So, do you think you can beat the current record and find them all in less than 30 seconds?

Becky Simms, CEO at Reflect Digital, said: ‘We’ve created this brain teaser to mark National Coding Week to drum up passion for this much-needed skill and hope to inspire people of all ages to get involved.

‘With the average time set at 30 seconds to complete the game we’re looking forward to seeing the record being beaten.’

If you weren’t stumped by the last puzzle, another vibrant spot-the-difference puzzle has left players scratching their heads. 

Hungarian children’s illustrator and viral brainteaser sensation Gergely Dudás, better known as Dudolf, challenged players to find the ten aspects separating these two almost identical leafy scenes. 

To make things as difficult as possible, Dudolf has filled the vibrant images with plenty of playful characters, brightly coloured accessories and extra details to try and confuse the eye.

To have any hope of getting all ten, you will have to pay close attention to even the smallest of objects. 

The puzzle, shared on Dudolf’s Facebook and website, proved popular with his followers, who said it was ‘very tricky’ but ‘awesome’. 

One fan wrote: ‘I found eight and than after a while I clicked the link and I saw the last two. Very tricky.’ 

If you’re struggling to find them then here’s a clue: the differences can be as small as a change in colour or a detail on an animal’s fur.

Meanwhile, as we’re dreaming of lazing away the days on a beach, a tricky new brainteaser challenges the nation to find the bucket and spade amongst the beach huts.
