When starting to solve a puzzle or a riddle, we live for that moment when we’re able to say, “Aha!” The satisfaction and joy we feel are immense, and our brains brighten up like a yellow light bulb, like in cartoons. The adrenaline we feel helps us to see things that we would’ve otherwise missed if we weren’t so taken aback by our success.

Unfortunately, this doesn’t make the puzzles any easier though!
