That's the one! But it wasn't Epic.

Imagine being faced with this problem. It's not even visually clear what's going on in the picture. That's before you even get to solving the puzzle. Just "identify what we mean by a mouse" would be enough to be the captcha.

And then -- and I don't know how everyone else's brain works -- but, being the simpleton that I am, it's a linear search checking each one against the condition. There's enough time to look at about 3 of them before the clock ran out. No, I really don't want more time, either.

I'm comforted by the comments in that Reddit post. I haven't gone crazy.
