A new game is going viral across social media and it's driving players crazy. The find the 4th object game has players look at an image and try to find the 4th listed hidden object, a crutch. But many can't find the crutch, with some believing it's not in the image at all! Here's what you need to know.
What Is The "Find The Fourth Object" Meme?
In 2019, a series of bad mobile game ads started going viral on Reddit. The ads are for a hidden object game and display an image asking viewers to find the fourth object specifically, which is listed on the right-hand side.
Examples of the ad kept on going viral on social media over the following years, with numerous examples. Then, in 2021, an image from one of the ads that allegedly contains a hidden cup went viral. The only problem is, nobody can find the cup and it seemingly does not exist in the image, likely as a way of keeping eyes on the ad for as long as possible as they search for the object.
This version of the meme went viral and was followed by others where the fourth image seemingly isn't present in the image. Some future examples seem to use this trend as an excuse to make dirty jokes about the objects being hidden in inappropriate places.
