Oddball Detective

Oddball Detective is an observation game with a single rule: in each scene, identify the element that does not belong. That premise sounds thin and turns out not to be, because what counts as out of place shifts from level to level — sometimes it is an object in the wrong era, sometimes something physically impossible, sometimes just a detail that contradicts the rest of the picture. So you are not only looking, you are working out what kind of wrongness this particular scene is hiding. The scenes are varied enough to keep the exercise fresh, and it draws on general knowledge as much as on eyesight. A quiet, unhurried puzzle that suits short sessions well.
