Valentine’s Day is all about spending time with your loved-one.

And while that could involve going on a fun date like crazy golf or spending the evening doing something more extravagant like visiting the theatre, many prefer to just spend it having a more relaxing evening at home together.

But there’s only so much Netflix you can watch in one evening.

So one company has created a Valentine’s Day brainteaser too add a little bit of healthy competition to the romantic holiday.

The teaser, created by holiday properties business Holidaycottages.co.uk, shows couple Sam and Sophie off on a romantic Valentine’s Day break together.

Loved-up Sam is planning to pop the question to his other half but disaster strikes when he suddenly realises that he has misplaced his specially selected engagement ring.

So the aim of the game is to help Sam find the shining rock that is hidden somewhere among the loved-up scene, before he runs out of time to get down on one knee.

And just to add a little more thrill to the brainteaser there are also a few other romantic bits and pieces to try and find.

Help Sam find his Valentine’s Day presents that are hidden somewhere in the room.

Among the scene there is a single rose, a box of chocolates, a Valentine’s card and a gift box to find.

And the puzzle is trickier than it might look at first sight.

According to Holidaycottages.co.uk, it takes the average participant a whopping three minutes and 54 seconds to find the mere five items.

So make it a competition with your other half and see who can finish the puzzle the quickest.

Holidaycottages.co.uk’s Marketing Manager, Jo Price says: ‘Valentine’s Day is the perfect time to whisk your loved one away for a weekend break, whether or not a proposal is on the cards!’

So can you beat the time? Good luck!
