Brain Puzzle 3 Level 80

Overview

Level 80 is a restaurant-queue logic puzzle. The banner reads "Help the girl eat BBQ soon." A 3:00 timer ticks over a busy barbecue restaurant: red storefront with a "Barbecue" sign and a "Welcome" board, a cashier at the register showing ticket number 66, a waiter carrying a tray, a purple arcade machine, a bench with a man already eating, a trash can, and a closed manhole cover on the sidewalk. A long line of identical men in red shirts and olive-green pants snakes out the door. A hungry girl in a pink dress stands at the end of the line complaining, "I'm starving! Why hasn't my turn come yet?!"

• Difficulty: Regular
• Estimated moves: 3

Step-by-Step Solution

1. Notice the closed manhole cover on the sidewalk. The queue of men blocks the girl from the counter, but you cannot rush or bribe them. The manhole cover near the bottom-right of the screen is the hidden prop.

1. Tap the manhole cover. It flips open into a dark hole. Several men at the back of the line fall through it, thinning the queue dramatically. The waiter scratches his head in confusion, and the girl moves up toward the front of the remaining line.

1. Deal with the controlling boyfriend. Just as she is about to be served, a giant smartphone pops up in the center of the screen showing a chat thread with her flame-headed boyfriend. His message reads: "If you gain any more weight, we'll break up!" He is the real reason she cannot simply eat.

1. Break up with him. Tap the boyfriend / his chat bubble to dump the controlling partner. With the diet ultimatum gone, the girl is free to order and eat the BBQ she wants. The "Completed" banner drops with confetti.

Strategy & Reasoning

The puzzle layers two obstacles. The obvious one is the long queue — but the game refuses normal queue solutions (no cutting, no bribing). The absurd move is to open the manhole cover on the sidewalk and let the line of men drop into it; this is the cartoon logic the level rewards, and the waiter's confused reaction confirms it registered.

The second, hidden obstacle is emotional. Once the physical line is cleared, the game reveals the boyfriend's threatening text: he has been dieting her against her will. The level title says "help the girl eat," and the only way she can eat without punishment is to remove the boyfriend. Tapping his chat thread ends the relationship and frees her to order. The arcade machine, the bench, and the trash can are set dressing.

Tips & Common Mistakes

• Mistake: waiting in line or tapping the cashier. Normal queueing does nothing; the line never moves fast enough.
• Mistake: tapping the girl repeatedly. She just keeps complaining; she needs the obstacles removed for her.
• Correct order: open the manhole first (clear the queue), then tap the boyfriend's chat to break up. Both steps are required; doing only the manhole leaves her still blocked by the boyfriend's threat.
