Puzzle prompt

What is the number above 4 ?

Direct answer

The game is tricking your mind. The number above 4 is of course number 7 in this picture. But the game is thinking of the word “above” as a single unit more than number 4. The answer is “5”.

Strategy guide

  • 1.Interpret 'above' as 'one greater than' in numerical terms, not spatial position;
  • 2.Ignore the visual layout; focus on the literal meaning of 'above' as in counting order;
  • 3.When stuck, consider simple wordplay - 'above' often means the next number in sequence.

Common mistakes

  • 1.Looking at the visual arrangement and answering '7' without considering the wordplay;
  • 2.Assuming 'above' refers only to spatial position in the image, not numerical sequence;
  • 3.Overthinking with complex calculations instead of taking 'above' literally as one more than 4.
