Editor review
Find The Differences is spot-the-differences. Two near-identical images side-by-side. Locate the five (or seven, or ten) differences and tap them. Honestly, this is one of those genres I cannot tell whether I like or am just patient about.
The implementation is fine. 200 image pairs, hand-prepared (you can tell, the differences are mostly cleverly placed rather than algorithmic colour swaps). Hint system reveals one difference at a time, three hints per puzzle. Time limit per puzzle is generous on default and tighter on the optional speedrun mode.
Puzzles vary in quality. The best ones have differences that are visually subtle but logically obvious once you spot them. The worst have differences that are nearly invisible until you're scanning at pixel level, which feels less like a puzzle and more like a vision test. Three stars. Fine for what it is, hard to recommend over similar implementations that might have tighter quality control.
