Brain Puzzle 3 Level 96

Overview

Level 96 is a registry-office decision puzzle. The opening frame shows a young couple — a black-haired bride in a white wedding dress and a black-haired groom in a black suit — smiling with hearts floating around them, standing between two doors marked with a red heart (left) and a broken heart (right). Two large buttons sit on the desk: a green "Marry" button and a red "Divorc" [Divorce] button. Two tools are provided: a black gavel labeled "1000t" on the left and a crescent-moon magic wand on the right. The completed state shows the white-haired manager in the black suit standing alone with both doors open, smiling.

Step-by-Step Solution

1. Do not press the green Marry button immediately. The couple looks happy, but that is a façade. Two doors and two buttons are presented, and the tools on the desk indicate that you must investigate before deciding.

1. Use the magic wand on the couple. Tap the crescent-moon wand on the right side of the desk, then tap the couple. The wand consumes their disguise: the groom's black suit vanishes and he is now wearing a yellow nightgown with a guilty, finger-to-lips expression and red blushing marks; the bride's white wedding dress changes to a red dress, her eyes glow yellow, and she raises a fist ready to hit him. They are clearly already married and fighting, not a new couple here to wed.

1. Press the red Divorce button using the gavel. Now that the truth is revealed, the correct choice is not Marry. Tap the gavel on the left, then strike the red "Divorc" button. The gavel consumes the marriage-processing.

1. Watch the divorce door open. The right door (marked with the broken heart) swings open. A family walks out: a red-haired man carrying a little girl on his shoulders, holding a little boy's hand, walking alongside the dark-haired woman. The bottom caption reads "Go home together with Dad and Mom." The divorce has been finalized, but the family unit remains intact for the children.

1. Watch the completion. The couple and the family depart through the divorce door. The white-haired manager in the black suit stands with arms crossed, smiling. The "Completed" banner appears with confetti.

Strategy & Reasoning

The puzzle logic is "do not trust appearances — use the wand to reveal the truth before choosing." The happy wedding photo is a lie; the magic wand exposes the couple as already-married and actively fighting. Pressing Marry would have been the wrong choice because they are not a new couple — they are here to dissolve an existing marriage. The gavel then processes the divorce through the red button.

The family walking out of the broken-heart door might seem counterintuitive — a divorcee leaving with children and a partner — but the caption "Go home together with Dad and Mom" confirms that the divorce is amicable and the parents are co-parenting. The red-haired father carrying the child on his shoulders indicates the family bond survives the legal separation.

The tools are used in a specific order: the wand first (to reveal), then the gavel (to execute the divorce). If you press a button before using the wand, the decision would be based on the false happy appearance.

Tips & Common Mistakes

• Mistake: pressing the green Marry button immediately. The happy couple is a disguise. Always use the magic wand first to reveal their true state before making any choice.
• Mistake: using the gavel on the Marry button. After the wand reveals the fighting couple, the correct button is the red Divorce button, not the green Marry button.
• Mistake: thinking the family walking out means the wrong choice. The broken-heart door leads to the divorce, and the family walking out shows the amicable co-parenting result. This is the correct ending.
