Brain Blow Level 10
📝 Walkthrough
Overview
Three fires are burning on the board: a large campfire in the middle and two smaller flames, each on its own log at the sides. The prompt asks you to find the largest fire. The big campfire already looks larger than the small ones, but the intended solution merges the small flames into it first, creating one combined blaze. After the merge, the single unified fire is tapped as the largest one. No other fire source appears anywhere on the board, and the side logs are empty once their flames move over.
- Difficulty: Regular
- Estimated moves: 3
Step-by-Step Solution
- Identify the three flames: the large campfire in the center and the two smaller fires on the side logs. Note that the prompt asks for the largest fire, which can mean the biggest after they are brought together rather than the biggest at the starting layout.
- Drag one small flame onto the central campfire so the two flames join into a single blaze. Release it over the big fire rather than over an empty log, and watch the heat combine in the center.
- Drag the remaining small flame onto the merged central fire, adding it to the combined blaze. The two side logs should end up empty once both small fires have moved over, leaving only the central blaze.
- Tap the combined large fire in the center to select it as the largest fire. The level completes once the unified blaze is chosen, and the separate small flames no longer exist as independent candidates.
- Before tapping the merged blaze, scan both side logs once more to be sure neither small flame was left behind, because a fire that did not join the central campfire keeps counting as a separate candidate. If one small flame still burns on its log, drag it onto the center before selecting anything. When the combined fire fills the middle of the board, its larger size should clearly exceed the two original small flames, which confirms the merge worked before the final tap.
Strategy & Reasoning
Straight comparison would pick the middle campfire at once, but the level gives you two movable small flames for a reason: merging them enlarges the central fire beyond its original size. The largest fire is therefore the union of all three, formed by bringing the side flames onto the central one rather than leaving them as separate candidates.
Each small fire travels with its flame, so dragging an empty log or a piece of wood will not merge anything. Releasing over the central blaze combines the heat visually, and after both additions the combined fire fills the middle of the board. Tapping a leftover small flame after the merge would reject the answer, since those flames are no longer separate.
Tips & Common Mistakes
- Do not tap the central campfire immediately; the level expects the side flames to be merged into it before the largest fire is selected.
- Drag the flame itself, not the log it sits on, so the fire moves onto the central blaze instead of shifting the wood.
- Make sure both side logs are empty before tapping the merged fire; one small flame left behind means the merge is incomplete.
