Brain Out Level 207
📝 Walkthrough
Overview
Level 207 says "Save the Egg." The board shows an egg-shaped character sweating and straining while holding a heavy barbell above its head. If you do nothing, the barbell will crush the egg. The Brain Out twist is that you do not remove the weights; you hold the barbell up yourself and pull the egg out from underneath it. You need two fingers: one holds the barbell in place while the other drags the egg away to safety.
- Difficulty: Regular
- Estimated moves: 2
Step-by-Step Solution
- Look at the egg under the barbell. It is sweating and shaking, and the barbell is about to crush it.
- Place one finger on the barbell itself and hold it up. This supports the weight so the egg is no longer carrying it.
- With a second finger, press and hold on the egg's body.
- While the first finger keeps the barbell raised, drag the egg out from underneath it and off to the side.
- Once the egg is clear of the barbell, let go. The egg is safe, and the level-complete pop-up appears with the line "Saved." Tap Next to continue.
- Keep holding the barbell with your first finger while you drag the egg out with the second. Release the barbell only after the egg is fully away.
Keep the barbell held with one finger until the egg is fully off the screen. If you release early, the barbell drops onto the egg.
Keep the barbell held with one finger until the egg is fully off the screen. If you release early, the barbell drops onto the egg and the level resets.
If the pop-up does not appear on your first attempt, repeat the action described above; the level triggers completion the moment the required object is placed or the required gesture finishes.
Strategy & Reasoning
The puzzle abuses the physics of holding something up. The egg is not strong enough to keep supporting the barbell, but your finger can. The trick is to treat the barbell as an object you can hold in place, then remove the egg rather than trying to remove the weights. Brain Out often uses two-finger gestures where one finger stabilizes an object and the other finger moves a different one. This level follows Brain Out's signature rule: the obvious action rarely works, and the solution usually involves either moving an on-screen object that looks fixed, using a hardware button, or treating the prompt text itself as a draggable element. Once you recognize the pattern, the trick becomes easy to spot.
Tips & Common Mistakes
- Trying to lift the barbell off the egg with one finger. You need to hold it in place while moving the egg.
- Dragging the egg while the barbell is still on it. The barbell must be supported first.
- Releasing the first finger before the egg is clear. Keep holding the barbell until the egg is fully out.
