Only a true genius can spot the word 'cold' hidden in sea of 'gold' in 10 seconds

If you're looking to kickstart your brain after a lazy weekend, then you're in luck.

Puzzle players and game lovers alike will need to do some serious thinking in order to conquer our latest brain teaser.

Unlike optical illusions where you're asked to find the missing item in a colourful cartoon, this game challenges you to locate the word 'cold' missing in a sea of 'gold'.

So you've really got to keep your eyes peeled if you're hoping to beat the clock.

Not only will you have to check every word until you spot the winner, but the repetitive colour scheme makes the job that much harder.

Find the word 'cold' to win (fresherlive)

Do you think you've got what it takes? If so, set your timer now. You've got 10 seconds. Good luck, you're going to need it.

But don't worry if you're not quite a brain teaser whizz yet. We've got a hint you can use to narrow down your search.

If you're struggling to locate the answer, turn your focus to the bottom half of the image. By limiting your search, you'll hopefully increase your chances of finding the odd word out.

If you're not quite there yet, we'd advise you to stop scrolling now as we're going to reveal the answer below.

For everyone else who is ready to check their result, scroll down for the reveal.

Did you solve the brain teaser in time? (fresherlive)

As you can see, 'cold' is hidden in the second to last row in the penultimate column - making it easy to miss for anyone who skimmed over the corners.

If you'd like a rematch, then you can turn your attention to another word-based game like this one. But this time, you've only got five seconds to locate the hidden word.

For players who prefer image-based challenges, why not try this waterpark-themed brain teaser? In a mind-bending twist, you're searching for the blue rubber ring, nestled somewhere between the aquamarine swimming pools.
