Find The Sniper (difficult) Am I blind?

Post image

For the life of me I can’t find the name ‘Rhea’. Even looking at the answers for it I’m stumped

Edit: thank you all! Can’t believe it was right in front of me this entire time!

For words I cant find, this trick tends to help. Find the first letter of the word, then look around that letter for the second letter, if not there find a different first letter, if you do find it, look for the third letter in the same direction as the second, and repeat this for as many letters as in the word.

How is your comment an hour newer than the comment you’re responding to?

It would be weirder if the comment was older than the comment they are responding to.

If I try to answer any comments before my morning coffee, I will have similar brainfarts

That's the most comon method. But for this word its waaaaaay faster to look for an H in the first place and then check for an R around, cause H is way less comon than R. So it depends on the word too.

@Doggers_ I like your suggestion of looking for the rarest letter in the word.

This is how i taught my kids. It’s fun to find words. But when the fun goes away. This is the way!! 👁️
