Fake Illusions is a truly genius game that asks the player to do something many of us have often wanted to do: defeat an optical illusion. We have become accustomed to these patterns in which everything is actually the same size or length and only appears different due to coloring, but now something is actually different and you must select what.

There are a ton of different levels, each featuring its own illusion type and various difficulty levels. Sometimes you need to select which line is slanted, sometimes which color is actually darker, and other times which shape is moving. It becomes a great test of eyesight and manages to never get extremely difficult either. While the game gives credits after completing one set of levels, it is recommended to check out the second set as well for even more fun illusions.

This is great in concept and great in execution; I am honestly surprised I have not seen this type of game before. I would definitely recommend this game, and if you really want to have fun try screenshotting a puzzle and showing it to a friend for them to believe everything is normal in the image!
