Brain Puzzle 3 Level 110

Overview

Level 110 is a ballet-stage cleanup puzzle. The yellow banner reads "Help them return to normal." A stage with red velvet curtains shows four ballerinas in a botched performance. The left ballerina wears a blue leotard but has a pregnant-looking belly and black athletic shorts underneath, and is making a heart shape with her hands. The center ballerina looks normal in a pink tutu. The back-right ballerina wears a ruffled blue skirt instead of a proper tutu, holds a pink pointe shoe in her raised hand, and has a dark bruise/shadow on her cheek. The rightmost ballerina has long loose blonde hair instead of a neat bun, and wears a pink tutu. On the wooden floor lie a makeup palette, a foundation bottle, and a blue paint bucket. The bottom caption reads "Why does this performance look so messy?" The completed state shows all four ballerinas in proper synchronized poses with neat buns and matching tutus.

• Difficulty: Regular
• Estimated moves: 5

Step-by-Step Solution

1. Cover the bruise with makeup. Tap the makeup palette and foundation bottle on the floor. They disappear — the makeup has been used to cover the bruise on the back-right ballerina's cheek. Her face is now clear.

1. Remove the pointe shoe. Tap the pink pointe shoe she is holding aloft. It vanishes. A ballerina does not hold a shoe mid-dance.

1. Paint the black shorts into a tutu. Tap the blue paint bucket on the floor. The paint is used to transform the left ballerina's black athletic shorts into a proper blue tutu. The bucket disappears.

1. Put the rightmost ballerina's hair up. Tap her long loose blonde hair. It gathers into a neat blonde bun with a blue hairband, matching the other dancers.

1. Fix the left ballerina's belly and pose. Tap her round belly. The bottom caption reads "I accidentally ate too much" — she has simply overeaten. The belly flattens and her hands drop from making a heart shape into a proper ballet arm position.

1. All four ballerinas are now synchronized in blue and pink tutus, neat buns, correct poses. The "Completed" banner appears with confetti.

Strategy & Reasoning

The puzzle logic is "fix each ballerina's flaw one by one." Each dancer has one thing wrong: the left one has a fake belly and gym shorts, the back-right one has a bruise and holds a shoe, and the right one has loose hair. The items on the floor are the tools to fix them: makeup covers the bruise, paint transforms the shorts into a tutu, and tapping the hair puts it up.

The "pregnant" belly is a joke — it is just from eating too much, as the caption reveals. Tapping it makes it deflate. The center ballerina in pink is already correct and needs no changes.

Tips & Common Mistakes

• Mistake: leaving the black shorts. The paint bucket must be used to turn the shorts into a tutu. Tapping the ballerina alone does not change the shorts.
• Mistake: forgetting the makeup. The bruise on the back-right ballerina must be covered with the foundation from the floor.
• Mistake: leaving the rightmost hair down. Her long hair must be tapped to put it into a bun matching the others.
