Brain Out Level 213

Overview

Level 213 says "Unlock the Pad!" The board shows a numeric keypad with "Enter Password" on top, sitting on a desk. On the desk to the left of the keypad is a smudge of orange scribble, like someone erased a written note. The Brain Out twist is that the password is hidden under that smudge. You wipe the smudge away with your finger, revealing the digits "7685." Then you type those four digits into the keypad and press the checkmark.

• Estimated moves: 3

Step-by-Step Solution

1. Look at the keypad. It asks for a password, but no hint is given on the screen.
2. Look at the orange scribble on the desk to the left of the keypad. It looks like someone tried to hide a number.
3. Press and hold on the smudge and rub it back and forth as if erasing it.
4. The scribble fades away, revealing the handwritten digits "7685."
5. Tap 7, 6, 8, and 5 on the keypad in that order.
6. Press the checkmark button on the lower right. The keypad unlocks with a green check. Tap Next to continue.
7. After wiping the smudge away, type seven, six, eight, five on the keypad and press the checkmark.

Rub the orange scribble on the desk with your finger. The digits seven, six, eight, five appear; enter them on the keypad.
Rub the orange scribble on the desk with your finger. The digits seven, six, eight, five appear; enter them on the keypad and press the checkmark.
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.
After entering 7685 and pressing the checkmark, the pad unlocks and the level-complete pop-up appears.

Strategy & Reasoning

The puzzle hides the password in plain sight. The keypad itself gives no hint, but the desk has a deliberately obvious smudge. Brain Out often draws on-screen objects that look like scribbles or stains; you are expected to wipe them away to see what is underneath. In this case, the smudge is covering the written password. 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

• Guessing random digits on the keypad. The password is written on the desk, not a code you invent.
• Tapping the smudge once. You need to rub it back and forth to erase it.
• Reading the digits in the wrong order. They read left to right as 7, 6, 8, 5.
