Brain Out Level 64

Overview

The prompt "Find out the hexagon" shows four shapes: a light-blue five-pointed star, an orange square, a yellow trapezoid, and a green circle. None of them is a hexagon. The trick is that you can combine two existing shapes to form a six-sided outline: the orange square overlapped with the yellow trapezoid creates a hexagon silhouette.

• Difficulty: Regular
• Estimated moves: 2

Step-by-Step Solution

1. Look at the four shapes. Count the sides of each: the star has many points, the square has four, the trapezoid has four, and the circle has none.
2. Press and hold the orange square. Drag it toward the yellow trapezoid.
3. Drop the square so it overlaps the trapezoid. The combined outline of the two shapes forms a hexagon.
4. The green checkmark appears on the combined shape, and the congratulations popup says "Awesome!!!"

The four shapes are a light-blue star, an orange square, a yellow trapezoid, and a green circle. None is a hexagon. But you can combine two shapes to form a six-sided outline.

Press and hold the orange square. Drag it toward the yellow trapezoid and drop it so they share an edge. The combined outline is a hexagon. A green checkmark appears, and the message says Awesome!!!

Drag the orange square next to the yellow trapezoid. They share an edge and form a six-sided combined shape. A green checkmark appears on the combined shape. If you drag the star or the circle, nothing happens.

When you drag the square next to the trapezoid, line them up so they share a complete vertical edge. If they are offset, the combined outline will not look like a hexagon and the game will not register the match.

Strategy & Reasoning

The puzzle is asking you to construct a hexagon, not to find one that is already drawn. The orange square and the yellow trapezoid, when placed next to each other, share an edge and produce a six-sided combined silhouette. The star and the circle are decoys — the star has too many sides and the circle has none. The game accepts the moment the two shapes overlap in the right configuration.

Combining the square and the trapezoid creates a six-sided outline because the two shapes share one edge when placed side by side. The star has too many sides and the circle has none, so they are not candidates. The red shape and yellow trapezoid are both four-sided, but the trick is to stack two four-sided shapes so their combined silhouette has six outer edges. This is a geometry puzzle disguised as a shape-matching task.

The star has ten outer vertices and is a decoy. The circle has no straight sides and is also a decoy. Only the combination of the square and the trapezoid produces a six-sided outline. Make sure the two shapes share a full edge before releasing the drag.

Tips & Common Mistakes

• Do not tap the star. It is a decoy with many more than six sides.
• Do not tap the circle. It has no straight sides.
• Do not drag the circle onto the square. That does not form a hexagon.
