Brain Out 2 Level 90
📝 Walkthrough
Overview
Level 90 asks "Which of them is the kidnapper?" Two side-by-side scenes are shown. On the left, a blue-haired girl with a ponytail and white gloves sits at a table applying makeup next to an open, neatly packed suitcase. On the right, a blonde woman in a bathrobe relaxes in a bathroom, drying her hair with a hairdryer. At first both look like ordinary women getting ready, but the bathroom hides a terrible secret. The victory line, "Spend the rest of your life in prison!", identifies the bathroom woman as the criminal once her hidden captive is uncovered.

Step-by-Step Solution
- Compare the two scenes. The left girl is packing and doing her makeup — ordinary behavior. The right woman is in her bathroom drying her hair with a peaceful, relaxed expression. Neither looks obviously guilty.
- Notice what the bathroom woman is hiding. She is making a lot of noise with the hairdryer, which is suspicious. Look behind / beyond her in the bathroom.
- Slide or move things aside to uncover the background. Drag the shower curtain / move the hairdryer-woman aside so you can see into the bathtub area behind her.
- Discover the bound hostage. Hidden in the bathtub behind her is a red-haired woman tied up and gagged, eyes closed — the kidnapping victim. The hairdryer noise was meant to cover her cries.
- Identify the kidnapper. The blonde woman in the bathrobe is the kidnapper. Prison bars slam down over her bathroom scene as she is caught, and the screen says "Spend the rest of your life in prison!" The level is cleared.
Strategy & Reasoning
This is a hidden-object detection puzzle. The blue-haired girl on the left is a decoy: her packed suitcase and gloves look suspicious at first (someone about to flee?), but she is simply getting ready, and nothing is hidden in her room.
The clue on the right is behavioral. Why is a woman casually blowdrying her hair with such an air of calm? The hairdryer is a cover story — the loud noise masks a kidnapped victim's screaming. By itself, the foreground woman blocks your view of the tub, which is exactly why the puzzle asks you to move things aside. Once the curtain/foreground is cleared, the bound, gagged hostage in the tub is visible, and the crime is exposed.
The game's logic is that the kidnapper is the person with something to hide behind a normal-looking daily activity. The left woman has no hidden room or captive, while the right bathroom conceals the victim. Sliding the view aside is the key interaction rather than guessing from faces.
Tips & Common Mistakes
- Mistake: accusing the blue-haired girl. Her packed suitcase and gloves look shady, but her room has no hidden captive. She is the decoy.
- Mistake: tapping the blonde without looking behind her. She looks innocent at first glance. You must move the foreground/curtain aside to reveal the bathtub behind her.
- Mistake: missing the hostage. The tied-up, gagged red-haired woman is hidden in the tub area behind the blowdrying woman. Find her first, then the kidnapper is obvious.
