Brain Out Level 211
๐ Walkthrough
Overview
Level 211 says "Thirsty, May I have a glass of water?" The board shows a table with ice cubes on the left, an empty glass in the center, and a blue electric kettle on the right. Under the table is a puddle of water. At first you might try to melt the ice, or lift the kettle straight up. But the Brain Out twist is that the kettle pours only when you tip it over with a second finger. You drag the kettle over the glass and rotate it so the spout points down. Water flows into the glass.
- Difficulty: Regular
- Estimated moves: 2
Step-by-Step Solution
- Look at the table. The empty glass is in the center, and the kettle is on the right.
- Press and hold on the kettle with one finger.
- Drag the kettle over the glass. Do not let go.
- With a second finger, rotate or tilt the kettle so its spout points down into the glass.
- Keep holding the kettle in that tilted position until water pours into the glass.
- Once the glass is full, the level-complete pop-up appears with the line "Many thanks!" Tap Next to continue.
- Keep the kettle tilted with your second finger until the glass fills. If you straighten it too early, no water flows.
Tilt the kettle with your second finger so the spout points into the glass. Keep it tilted until the glass fills; straightening it stops the pour.
Tilt the kettle with your second finger so the spout points into the glass. Keep it tilted until the glass fills; straightening it early stops the pour.
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.
Once the glass fills, the level completes automatically; you do not need to hand the glass to anyone.
Strategy & Reasoning
The puzzle is a two-finger pouring gesture. In real life you would lift a kettle and tip it; in this game, one finger carries the kettle while the other finger tilts it. Dragging the kettle straight to the glass without tilting it does nothing, because the spout is still horizontal. Tapping the kettle also does nothing. 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
- Dragging the kettle to the glass without tilting it. No water comes out.
- Trying to melt the ice cubes to get water. The ice is a decoy.
- Letting go of the first finger before the glass is full. Keep holding the kettle in place while it pours.
