PUT yourself to the test with this geography-themed puzzle designed to have you stumped.
Players are challenged with spotting the differences in a series of altered national flags.
The creators at Kitty Bingo have made hard-to-spot changes to nine of the flags in honour of National Puzzle Day.
You have 180 seconds to try and find them all.
Get your timer ready and stay focused on your new task.
Kitty Bingo states: “National Puzzle Day is all about challenging your mind and improving your problem-solving skills.”
First, it may be useful to sort through the 24 flags to find which nine have been changed.
If you fancy a challenge, use only the first image to solve the puzzle.
Those who want to start with an easier test should use the second image, which shows all the correct flags on one side and the altered ones on the other.
There are many recognisable flags but if you’re not a geography buff, some may be more tricky.
The different eye-catching colours and patterns make this challenge slightly more tricky.
Make sure you don’t get distracted by the countries; focus on the flag differences.

With the flags neatly ordered in rows, why not try solving the puzzle one row at a time?
Slowly compare each flag to the one in the other image, or if you are using the harder version, examine each flag closely.
Sometimes, a slower approach is the most effective.
Regularly practicing puzzles like this helps give your brain a workout.
