Oct 17, 2017

We love a good puzzle and this matchstick series has some real head scratchers! If you love a challenge as much as we do then you are going to really enjoy these - it makes for the perfect midday brain exercise and will keep you sharp! Each one of these puzzles has the answer hidden inside of them so you have to use visualization to solve them. Ready for take two? 

In the figure below you should be able to see five squares. The challenge is to remove two of the matchsticks so that only two squares remain. 

Did you figure it out? No? Don't worry, we have the answer for you! All you have to do is remove the two matches marked in red and the final figure will then have just two squares. 

PS: this is one of four ways - you can remove any of the middle pairs.
