About the New Year's Eve Odd One Out Game
A rapid visual-scanning challenge. A grid fills with the same picture repeated over and over — except one tile, which is different. Spot it and tap it before the clock runs out. Every round the grid grows and the clock gets tighter.
Ten! Nine! Eight! — the fizz of the countdown, fireworks over the skyline and resolutions you'll keep until at least the 4th of January. Ring in the new year with the sparkliest deck of all.
