Brain Find Level 80
๐ Walkthrough
Overview
Level 80, subtitled "Watch out for wolves!", shows a cozy nighttime hot spring where several animals are bathing. A crescent moon hangs in the sky, and in the steaming pool you can see a monkey on the left, a cat wearing a towel on the right, a tan-colored dog in the middle-left, and a black-faced sheep on the middle-right. Outside the spring, a pig stands on the right, and a small table on the left holds a banana, an apple, a fish, and a bone. A wolf icon at the bottom shows the animal you must uncover. The twist is that one of the bathers is not actually an animal at all โ the "dog" is wearing a dog-head mask, and underneath it a werewolf is hiding. The core mechanic is lifting that dog mask off the bather's head to expose the wolf's true form.

Step-by-Step Solution
- Take in the whole scene. It is night, with a crescent moon above the steaming hot spring. Count the bathers: a yellow monkey on the left, a brown-and-white cat with a towel on its head on the right, a tan "dog" in the middle-left of the pool, and a black-faced sheep in the middle-right. A pink pig stands outside on the right, and a picnic table with food sits on the left.
- Do not tap the monkey, the cat, the sheep, or the pig. All of those are genuine bathers and reacting to none of them. The table food (banana, apple, fish, bone) is also decoration, not a tool to feed anyone.
- Focus on the bather that looks like a tan dog, floating in the middle-left of the pool. Notice that its head sits oddly high on the water and looks like a separate piece rather than a normal animal head. This is the suspicious one.
- Press and hold on the tan dog head, then drag it straight upward, away from the body in the water. Lift the head up and off, as if peeling off a mask. As you lift it, the dog head comes free and floats up toward the top of the pool, revealing the face of a small blonde figure underneath.
- With the dog mask removed, the disguise falls away completely. The sky brightens from night to day and the revealed figure changes into a blue werewolf โ pointed ears, a wolf snout, bared teeth, and a bushy tail sticking out of the water. The game then accepts this as the answer: the werewolf is circled and the success screen appears with a red ribbon reading "Good" and the line "Oops! Werewolf!", showing the blue werewolf in the center. The level is complete.
Strategy & Reasoning
The title "Watch out for wolves!" sets up a hide-and-seek situation: a wolf is somewhere among this crowd, and you have to spot it. A normal player scans each animal looking for claws, a snout, or ears that do not belong, but every bather reads as a plausible cartoon animal at first glance โ monkey, cat, dog, sheep, pig. The disguise is too good to judge by a single glance.
The breakthrough is noticing that the "dog" is the only bather whose head does not naturally belong to the body. When you grab it, the entire head lifts off cleanly and floats upward, revealing a completely different face beneath. This is the classic "mask" trick that Brain Find uses repeatedly: something that looks like an animal's head is actually a removable costume, and the real creature is underneath it. The werewolf chose to disguise itself as a dog because a dog head is a common, unremarkable shape in a hot spring full of animals, so nobody suspects it.
Why this works as the intended solution is confirmed by the reveal sequence itself. The moment the dog head comes off, the scene responds: the sky lightens and the figure beneath turns into the blue werewolf shown in the bottom goal icon and on the success screen ("Oops! Werewolf!"). The other bathers never change, which proves they were innocent all along and that the dog-mask bather was the only impostor.
Alternative approaches fail for concrete reasons. Tapping the other animals produces no reaction. Dragging the food from the table to any bather does not trigger a transformation. Tapping the pig outside the spring also does nothing. The only object that comes off in your hand is the dog's head, which is why peeling it upward is both the intended and the fastest move โ it unmasks the werewolf in a single gesture.
Tips & Common Mistakes
- Common mistake: checking each animal's body for wolf features. The werewolf is fully disguised, so looking at fur, ears, or tails will not give it away. Instead, look for a body part that lifts off.
- Common mistake: tapping the dog's head instead of dragging it off. A tap does nothing; you must press, hold, and drag the whole dog head upward to remove the mask, revealing what is underneath.
- Common mistake: suspecting the black-faced sheep or the pig. The sheep and pig are genuine; the impostor is the tan "dog" in the middle-left of the pool, whose head is a costume. Lift that specific head.
