Twitter translate: I tried again earlier and got my best score! It's a really fun game.
From Twitter translate: Turning Manor Demo Spot the Difference Game Only paintings, plants, and shelves count as anomalies, while parts outside the targets may have amazing things happen. Traps, icy floor, operation or vertical/horizontal reversals, power outages, etc. After counting, choose whether the number of anomalies is even or odd. Clearing it faster and more accurately gives a high score. It was so fun that I played it three times.
