The new puzzle challenges players to look through the pictures of Elon to see if they can find 'Elon Mustache' - the only drawing of the Tesla boss with facial hair.
You'll be even more impressed with yourself if you can find Elon Mustache in the 144 images in just 15 seconds.
And if you can't, your eyesight might not be as good as you think.
"With Elon Musk dominating headlines, this brainteaser offers players a topical test of their eyesight, to find the odd Elon out of nearly 150 regular cartoon images of him," a spokesperson for Direct Sight, who provided the brainteaser, said.
'This 'odd one out' game is a perfect blend of mental stimulation and a nod to testing our eyesight that so many of us are committed to.
"It's a quick, engaging way to take a break, test your observational and visual skills and have fun along the way."
If you're struggling to find the odd one out, try narrowing it down into quarters.
And take a look at one before the other.
If you still can't find the mustachioed man, you can rule out the left half of the picture.
Then, you can cross out the top section of the right half - it's somewhere in the bottom.
