We’ve all fantasized about having psychic powers, but it turns out that being a mind-reader may be easier than you think! Every Monday, Gizmodo hosts a puzzle that tests your psychic abilities. It’s an opportunity to see how well you can read minds by deciphering the words and ideas of a stranger.
The Gizmodo Monday Puzzle has become a hit among the host’s readership. Every week, the puzzle consists of a handwritten note submitted by an anonymous Gizmodo reader. In the note, the reader outlines a problem or thought that they’ve been pondering, but doesn’t provide any additional information. It’s up to you to decode the message and figure out what the note-writer is trying to express.
The puzzles range from weird and wild questions about topics including science, philosophy, and pop culture—it’s up to you to use your telepathic skills to try and piece together their point. After solving the puzzle, readers can compare their answers on the Gizmodo Discussion page where members of the Gizmodo community weigh in with their own takes.
Gizmodo puzzles are a great way to challenge yourself and find out if you have what it takes to be a master mind-reader. You never know what you’ll get in each week’s mystery note, so flex your brain and prepare to be amazed by the wonders of the human mind. If you feel yourself getting overwhelmed, remember that you’re not alone—the Gizmodo community is always here to speculate with you. Who know, maybe you’ll be the one who cracks the mystery!
