Photo Spot Global Challenge is a fun and relaxing app game for the iPhone that will make your mind work harder when looking at pictures. The object of the game is simple, but the overall quality of the app is very good. Photo Spot Global Challenge would be a great game for anyone who likes “find the difference”-type games.

I have played other “find the difference” pictures games, and they were not as good as Photo Spot Global Challenge, because the latter offers different pictures that are unique in the way. The pictures are unique because they test different types of “seeing,” such as comparing perspectives. I spent about ten seconds or so looking for the last item on one of Photo Spot Global Challenge’s pictures, and I did not notice that the two objects in comparison were different in size. Another great feature of Photo Spot Global Challenge is the user-friendly interface. The user can easily figure out what the app is about because the directions are simple. The first step is to tap on the screen, and then two pictures that look similar are shown. Tapping on the right one’s differences from the left one is the key to this game. The picture quality is very good, although some people might feel that the pictures are small. Perhaps a zoom function would also be helpful for Photo Spot Global Challenge. A watch clock counts down until the user finds a difference. The bars in the middle indicate the remainder of time for the game (and also how many errors the user can make).

The controls are very good. It only takes a tap to get through the game. The controls are by no means fancy, but they get the job done. The app is sensitive to touch, and its response is fast and dead on.

Overall, the quality of Photo Spot Global Challenge is very good, and perhaps rates as an 8 on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the best. The graphics are high-quality; the details in each picture are great, although the preciseness of the pictures makes the game that much more difficult.

All in all, I would highly recommend Photo Spot Global Challenge. This is the best “find the differences” game for the iPhone that I have ever played. Best of all, Photo Spot Global Challenge is free and there seems to be a nice quantity of different pictures in the game.
