Simple And Interesting Riddles You Are Likely To Get Wrong by 24hoursreporter: 6:19am On Jan 18, 2019
Solving riddles is always very interesting. It keeps your brain busy and enables you to ascertain your level of smartness.

Do you know the most annoying thing about Riddles? Sometimes the answer to a particle riddle may be too simple to figure out. But it always feels good to solve riddle. Its a way of training yourself to think outside the box.

What I love so much about riddles is the way it presents a lot of details to distract you from the main point. While the answer to a riddle is always very simple, it requires a high level of smartness to figure it out.

In this article, 24hoursreporter has compiled some simple and interesting riddles you are likely to get wrong.
