Brain Out 2 Level 14
📝 Walkthrough
Overview
Level 14 asks "Which animal looks the farthest?" Four animals are scattered on the screen: a Shiba dog at the top-left, a small bird at the top-right, a large grey pug-like animal sitting at the bottom-left, and a panda at the bottom-right. The trick is perspective: "near big, far small" — objects that are close look large, and objects that are far away look small. The animal that appears the smallest on screen is therefore the one that looks the farthest away. That is the little bird, and tapping it wins the level.

Step-by-Step Solution
- Read the question carefully. You need the animal that LOOKS the farthest away, judged by its drawn size on the screen.
- Compare the sizes of the four animals. The grey bottom-left animal is drawn huge, the Shiba is medium-large, the panda is small, and the bird at the top-right is the tiniest of all.
- Apply the "near big, far small" rule. Because close things look big and distant things look small, the smallest drawing appears to be the farthest away.
- Tap the bird. The tiny bird in the upper-right is the smallest animal, so it is the one that looks farthest.
- Confirm the clear. Little hearts float next to the bird, showing you picked correctly, and the prompt changes to "Near big, far small, have you got it!" The green next button appears.
Strategy & Reasoning
This is a perspective / visual-size puzzle. The phrase "looks the farthest" refers to optical appearance, not the animal's real-world location or habitat. In art and photos, perspective makes nearby objects appear large and faraway objects appear small. The level deliberately sizes the animals differently so that size stands in for distance.
The giant grey animal at the bottom-left is drawn largest, so it looks the closest. The panda is medium-small, the Shiba is bigger, and the bird is the smallest. By the near-big/far-small rule, the smallest figure — the bird — is the one that looks farthest away. The reward text "Near big, far small, have you got it?" spells this rule out directly.
Do not overthink it by asking which animal lives farthest away (birds fly high, pandas live in mountains, etc.). The question is about how far away the animal LOOKS on this flat picture, and the only cue you have is its drawn size. Tapping the smallest animal is the correct, single move.
Tips & Common Mistakes
- Mistake: tapping the biggest animal. The large grey animal looks the closest, not the farthest. Biggest on screen = nearest.
- Mistake: thinking about real habitats. You might pick the panda or bird based on where they live, but the question is about visual distance on screen, not geography.
- Mistake: picking by position. The animals are placed at four corners, but position does not matter — only size. The smallest figure (the bird) is the one that looks farthest; tap it.
