Brain Find Level 88

Overview

Level 88, subtitled "Where is my granddaughter?", shows three characters lined up: a small boy in a blue hoodie on the left, a hunched old "granny" in the center who is wrapped in a big yellow shawl and leans on a cane while carrying a basket, and a stout blonde man in a blue coat on the right. Below the characters are three tools: a brown long wig, a bottle of perfume, and a broom. At the bottom a circular goal icon shows a young girl in a red dress with long brown hair. The twist is that the granddaughter is not a separate hidden body — she is one of these three characters in disguise, and the hunched "granny" under the yellow shawl is really her.

• Difficulty: Regular
• Estimated moves: 1

Step-by-Step Solution

1. Survey the three people. The boy is genuinely a small child, and the stout blonde man is a separate adult. The suspicious figure is the hunched "granny" in the middle: she is covered head-to-back by an oversized yellow shawl that gives her an unnatural, bulky shape.

1. Compare with the goal icon. The granddaughter is a slender girl with long brown hair in a red dress. None of the visible characters matches — which means someone is wearing a disguise.

1. Realize the hunched figure under the yellow shawl is the granddaughter hiding under a blanket and using a cane and basket to look like an old woman.

1. Use the broom to sweep/lift the yellow shawl off the hunched figure. The shawl, cane, and bonnet disguise come away, revealing the granddaughter in her red dress.

1. The level completes with a "Good" banner and the message "My granddaughter is so beautiful!", showing the brown-haired girl in the red dress in the center circle.

Strategy & Reasoning

This level is a hidden-person puzzle in the spirit of "who is disguised." The designer gives you three plausible-looking characters but only one goal: a specific granddaughter. The boy and the stout man are drawn consistently with their apparent ages and builds, so they cannot be the missing girl. The middle figure, however, is drawn with an abnormally large yellow hump on her back and an exaggerated hunch, which reads as a blanket costume rather than a real old woman.

The tools reinforce the disguise theme. The brown wig and perfume look like ways to make someone look or smell different, which is a red herring for the idea of "fixing up" a character. The broom is the practical tool that removes a covering — you sweep away the blanket/shawl that is hiding the granddaughter. Trying to put the wig on the boy or the man, or spraying perfume, does nothing, because the problem is not appearance but concealment.

The completion line "My granddaughter is so beautiful!" confirms that the revealed person is the girl from the goal icon. Once the yellow shawl is lifted, the slender girl in the red dress is exposed, and the level accepts that you have found her. The key is noticing that the "old granny" is too bulky and too hunched to be genuine.

Tips & Common Mistakes

• Common mistake: searching behind the characters or off-screen for the granddaughter. She is already on screen, disguised as the hunched figure in the middle.
• Common mistake: using the brown wig or the perfume on the boy or the stout man. Those are decoys; neither reveals the hidden girl.
• Common mistake: leaving the yellow shawl in place. Use the broom to sweep/lift the shawl off the hunched figure to reveal the granddaughter in the red dress.
