Once I put on my reading glasses and could actually see the pictures I did ok. Definitely engages a different part of the brain than the words.

I’m on a desktop, and I have two blank squares. I tried a different browser, but still blanks. Grr.

I got it, but not impressed by this puzzle.

Me, too!:rofl:

I use a PC for most browser activities, including Connections and visiting the CC website, rather than a phone. My phone does display the correct icons. If the blank squares on PC (for some?) is meant to be an April Fool’s joke, it’s not a good one.

I’m guessing it’s a browser that doesn’t have those emojis. Don’t think they’d run a joke on some computer users and not others.

Not an emoji person - hope it is back to words tomorrow.
