Pictures can be fun puzzles that make you think. Image Riddles are pictures with hidden clues or tricks that test how well you can see details. They don’t use words, but they tell a story through what’s shown or sometimes, what’s missing. Each image hides something for you to find, whether it’s a shape, an object, or a small difference. Look closely and think carefully, because in these riddles, things are not always what they look like!
