Brain Find Level 84

Overview

Level 84, subtitled "How big is the dinosaur egg?", shows a prehistoric scene: a green cartoon dinosaur sits at the upper right, a caveman in a fur tunic stands on the lower left, and a dog sits on the lower right. A large white bone lies on the ground in the center, and at the bottom a circular goal icon shows a small white egg with blue-green spots. The level asks how big the dinosaur egg is, but the egg is not visible at first because it is concealed underneath the large bone lying on the ground. The approach is simple: move the bone aside to uncover the hidden egg, then select it.

• Difficulty: Easy
• Estimated moves: 2

Step-by-Step Solution

1. Survey the scene. You see the sitting dinosaur, the caveman, the dog, some grass and a stone, and a large bone lying diagonally on the ground in the middle. The goal icon at the bottom is a small spotted egg, but no egg is visible anywhere yet.

1. Ignore the caveman and the dog. They are not hiding the egg, and tapping them does nothing. The dinosaur itself is also just a bystander at this point.

1. Grab the large bone lying on the ground and drag it away. As the bone moves, the dinosaur picks it up and holds it against its chest, revealing what was hidden underneath.

1. Where the bone was lying, near the dinosaur's feet, a small white egg with blue-green spots is now exposed. It matches the goal icon exactly.

1. Tap the revealed egg. The level completes with a "Good" banner and the message "Is this a dinosaur or a dog?", displaying the spotted egg large in the center circle.

Strategy & Reasoning

The level's question, "How big is the dinosaur egg?", is a trick. A first-time player expects to estimate the size of an obvious, visible egg by comparing it to the dinosaur or the caveman. But no egg is drawn in the open, which means the question is really asking you to first FIND the egg. The only object large enough and positioned to conceal a small egg is the big bone lying on the ground in the center.

The designer uses the bone as a cover, just as other levels use patches, hats, or props. Because the bone is drawn naturally as a dinosaur's chew toy, it reads as ordinary set dressing rather than as something hiding an item. The caveman and the dog reinforce the illusion: they are familiar figures that look like they might be hiding something, but they are static decoys. Once the bone is moved, the egg appears instantly, which confirms the bone was the only cover.

Trying to measure anything, tapping the dinosaur, the caveman, or the grass does not advance the level, because the missing piece is hidden rather than visible. The completion message "Is this a dinosaur or a dog?" is a playful nudge that the scene is full of animals, but the item you needed was underneath the prop all along. Moving the bone is therefore both the discovery step and the trigger.

Tips & Common Mistakes

• Common mistake: searching the dinosaur, the caveman, or the dog for the egg. The egg is hidden under the bone on the ground, not on any character.
• Common mistake: trying to estimate size from the goal icon. The egg is not visible initially — you must move the bone to uncover it first.
• Common mistake: leaving the bone lying there. Drag the large bone away (the dinosaur will hold it) to reveal the spotted egg underneath, then tap the egg to finish.
