A set of perception and spatial puzzles: reading analogue clocks, completing colour grids by logic, and mentally rotating shapes. They are quick and intuitive for most people.
Reading a clock face or rotating a shape in your mind are perception tasks. Many AI models, which reason from text, slip on them — so this is one of the strongest places humans top the AI vs Human leaderboard.
No. If you can tell the time and spot a pattern of colours, you can do well here.
Visual reasoning is the ability to make sense of information presented as shapes, diagrams and pictures rather than words or numbers. It draws on spatial awareness and pattern recognition, and because it does not depend on language it appears widely in IQ tests, the 11+ and employer aptitude assessments. Strong visual reasoning helps with maths, science, design and any task that involves interpreting diagrams or imagining how things fit together.
