Brain Find Level 95
๐ Walkthrough
Overview
Level 95, subtitled "Cockroaches everywhere," shows a simple living room: a green two-seat sofa with a yellow cushion, a blue trash can to its left, and a jagged crack running down the wall in the right corner. On the floor below lie two items โ a yellow-and-red insecticide spray can marked with a crossed-out cockroach, and a rotten green apple. At the bottom the goal icon is a cockroach. Despite the title saying cockroaches are everywhere, none is visible, which means they are hiding in the wall crack. The approach is to use the spray on the crack to flush one out.
- Difficulty: Easy
- Estimated moves: 1
Step-by-Step Solution
- Survey the room. Note the sofa, the trash can, the insecticide spray, the rotten apple, and especially the jagged crack in the right-hand wall corner. The goal icon is a cockroach, but no cockroach is visible.
- Rule out the furniture. Tapping the sofa, the trash can, or the cushion does not reveal a cockroach. The rotten apple is bait, but bait alone only attracts โ it does not by itself finish the level.
- Recognize the wall crack as the cockroaches' hiding place. Cockroaches live in wall gaps.
- Pick up the insecticide spray can and spray it directly into the cracked corner. The chemical drives a cockroach out of the crack into the open.
- A cockroach emerges from the crack. The level completes with a "Good" banner and the message "There are cockroaches again!", displaying the cockroach in the center circle.
Strategy & Reasoning
The level title promises cockroaches everywhere, yet the screen is clean. This is the misdirection: the cockroaches are not crawling on the furniture but concealed in the only damaged spot on the walls โ the jagged corner crack. A first-time player taps the sofa, the trash can, and the rotten apple, trying to draw or crush a visible insect, but nothing appears because the insects are inside the wall.
The two tools point to the same solution. The rotten apple can attract cockroaches, but it is food, not a repellent; using it as bait would only draw them toward the floor. The insecticide can is the active tool designed to force cockroaches out of hiding, which is why spraying the crack works. The completion line "There are cockroaches again!" is a joke about how spraying never fully solves an infestation โ but for this level, flushing out one visible cockroach is enough to pass.
Trying to spray the sofa or the trash can fails, because the roaches are not there. The wall crack is the single suspicious feature on an otherwise clean wall, so it is the target. Once the crack is sprayed, the cockroach is forced into the open and the level accepts the find.
Tips & Common Mistakes
- Common mistake: tapping the sofa, cushion, or trash can looking for a visible cockroach. None is there; the cockroaches are hidden in the wall crack.
- Common mistake: dragging the rotten apple around as bait. The apple only attracts; it does not force a cockroach into the open by itself.
- Common mistake: spraying anywhere except the right-hand corner crack. Aim the insecticide at the jagged wall crack to flush the cockroach out.
