The Hurried Traveler's Escalators
Some letters are hidden in the picture, some harder to spot than others. Tap or click on them as soon as you spot them, in any order you like: they disappear. To zoom: two fingers on a phone, the scroll wheel on a computer.

About this game
Two escalators cross diagonally, their steps striped with clear lines that catch a gray light falling from above. On the floor, white arrows and dotted lines guide travelers to the left and to the right, while the metal handrails return sharp reflections. The black and white accentuates the contrast between the dark clothing and the pale concrete.
One can sense an hour of moderate crowds: the silhouettes are leaning forward, hurried, and it is easy to imagine a latecomer climbing the steps two at a time to catch his train. On the right, the long flat corridor with its regular arrows seems to await the next wave. The place keeps the particular calm of great train stations, where everyone moves at their own pace without really looking at one another.
For this hidden letters game, follow the lines of the scenery: the stripes of the steps, the edges of the handrails and the dotted lines on the floor often serve as hiding places. Some letters are lying down, tilted, or blend into the color of the concrete. Be sure to distinguish the N from the Z and the M from the W, and use the magnifier or zoom to read the finest details.
