New on Infendo - Weekly Picture Scramble
Sunday, April 27th, 2008 at 9:42am by David
Joshdad has an ongoing game over in the Infendo Forums. Basically, he posts a scrambled picture and you have to guess what it might be. We liked it so much, we’re going to bring it to the front page here at Infendo on a weekly basis.
Take a look at today’s picture above, and submit your guess is comments. For bonus points, submit a link to the original image! Winner gets bragging rights, but future contests might see some fun prizes.
[If you can't wait another week for the next puzzle, hit up the Forums for another fresh one. Big thanks to Joshdad!]
[UPDATE] Good job to everyone who guessed correctly. Neko To Kuruma was first to figure it out. The correct answer is posted after the jump.

Might want to scramble it a bit better next time, ’cause that is clearly the Mario Kart Wii boxart.

What strategies are used to “see” what it is? I am quite curious.

Actually, there is no strategy to see what it is (unlike the Magic Eye / 4D pictures). Basically it’s a picture that has been scrambled using a photo editing tool, and people are supposed to try and figure out what it is by the colors, or perhaps certain shapes. In this case it was the colors (and the fact that this game was released today) that made it rather easy to figure out what it was.
It’s true that the picture wasn’t that hard today, but that was also kind of on purpose. If it was too hard, it might have killed the idea on the first shot. Hopefully in the future, the pictures will be more of a challenge.
Also, if you want more pictures to guess at check out the thread in the Infendo “other” forum. And if you like, you can submit a photo of your own.

maybe its because i am color blind, but i never was good at such things. i know its not like those old tests with colored dots having hidden pictures, but even still, i couldnt see any patternsl in this one or recognise enough colors to make out what it was. lucky yall
