We all know how important it is to give our brains as much of a workout as we give the rest of our bodies, as keeping the organ healthy could be one of the keys to keeping degenerative conditions such as dementia at bay. Puzzle games and brain teasers are a fantastic way to do this, as they can boost cognitive function and help improve your focus, perception, and problem-solving skills.

So if you're looking for a way to give your mind some exercise today, why not give this puzzle ago? All you have to do is find one item in the messy room scene - in just 15 seconds.

You have 15 seconds to find the wallet

Take a look at the picture above. It's a familiar scene for many of us, as it depicts a living room that's in need of a major spring clean. There are clothes on the floor and on the furniture, sofa cushions that have been knocked out of place, and pictures on the wall that are wonky. There's also a step ladder in the middle of the room, as well as a bucket and some rubber gloves, suggesting the homeowners are in the middle of a deep clean.

But somewhere in the image, there's a wallet. To solve this brain teaser, all you have to do is find the hidden wallet as quickly as you can. According to Increditools, who put the puzzle together, you should be able to spot the wallet in just 15 seconds - so set yourself a timer and have a go!

Staring at this optical illusion for 2 minutes 'makes world look very different'

Have you found it yet? 15 seconds isn't a lot of time, but if your timer is buzzing at you, switch it off and keep looking. Even if you don't find the wallet within the time limit, you should still keep looking until you do - don't give up! Solving puzzles, no matter how long it takes, will help train your brain for the next time.

If you still haven't found it, don't scroll any further, as we're about to give you the answer.
