Find the item that breaks the pattern, but don't stop at seeing it; you have to pin down exactly which rule it violates, and subtler breaks score more.

How to play
A board of shapes varies by colour, fill, form and a hidden numeric value. One or more of them break a rule the others all follow. Select an item, then tag which rule it breaks from the list. Correct calls reveal the rule; tag every broken rule to finish the round. The more obscure the rule, the bigger the payoff.
Pick the item you think is the odd one out
Tag the specific rule it breaks, not just that it's different
Subtler rules are worth more points
Clear every rule the board hides to complete the round

Tips & strategy
Scan one attribute at a time, colour, then fill, then shape, then count the pips
If everything looks consistent, look harder at the hidden value; the sneakiest oddities are numeric
Go for the harder rules first while the board is fresh in your mind for the score multiplier
