Brain Find Level 94

Overview

Level 94, subtitled "Do you hate cockroaches?", shows an orange Shiba Inu dog standing next to a tall green Pringles-style chip tube standing upright on a blank screen. At the bottom the goal icon is a cockroach. The level is a hiding puzzle: the cockroach is not visible anywhere on screen, which means it is concealed inside the chip tube. The approach is to tip the tube over and spill its contents out, exposing the cockroach that was hiding among the chips.

• Difficulty: Easy
• Estimated moves: 1

Step-by-Step Solution

1. Survey the scene. You see the dog on the left and the upright green chip tube on the right. The goal icon is a cockroach, but no cockroach is visible.

1. Rule out the dog. The dog is not hiding a cockroach, and tapping it does not reveal one. The only enclosed container on screen is the chip tube.

1. Grab the upright green chip tube and drag it sideways until it tips onto its side. The opening of the tube points toward the floor.

1. The contents of the tube pour out — potato chips and crumbs spill onto the ground. Among what spills out is the cockroach that was hiding inside.

1. The cockroach is revealed. The level completes with a "Good" banner and the message "This potato chip can't be eaten," displaying the cockroach in the center circle.

Strategy & Reasoning

The level plays on the fact that an upright chip tube is a sealed-looking cylinder. A first-time player taps the dog, taps the tube, or turns it around looking for a surface cockroach, but there is nothing on the outside. Because the goal is a cockroach and the only dark, enclosed, food-smelling object on screen is the chip tube, the cockroach must be inside it.

The completion message "This potato chip can't be eaten" confirms the twist: one of the things that comes out is not a chip at all but a cockroach. The tube had to be opened by tipping it sideways, which is why simply tapping the closed tube does nothing. A closed Pringles-style tube only reveals its contents when it is inverted.

The dog is set dressing. It looks like it could be involved — dogs chase pests — but in this level it is not the mechanism. The productive action is purely mechanical: turn the chip tube over and let the contents fall out. The cockroach then appears among the spilled chips, which is exactly why the game says the chip "can't be eaten."

Tips & Common Mistakes

• Common mistake: tapping the dog or trying to make it chase something. The dog is a decoy and does not reveal the cockroach.
• Common mistake: tapping the upright chip tube expecting it to open. A closed tube does not open from a tap; you must drag it sideways to tip it over.
• Common mistake: looking for the cockroach on the wall or floor. It is hiding inside the chip tube — tip the tube over and it spills out with the chips.
