Brain Test 5 Level 48
๐ Walkthrough
Overview
This is a shape-assembly level spread across three notebook pages. Each page presents a new prompt and a set of loose geometric shapes scattered across the page. The second page reads "Make a birthday cake." and offers shapes like a teardrop, a curved smile line, an oval with two vertical lines, a square, and a triangle. The third page reads "Make a caterpillar." and provides circles, semicircles, lines, dots, an S-curve, a V-shape, a square, a triangle, and a trapezoid. You must drag the correct pieces together to form the requested object on each page. The overall approach is to identify which shapes belong to the target picture and snap them into their proper positions.
- Difficulty: Regular
- Estimated moves: 12
Step-by-Step Solution
- On the birthday cake page, identify the pieces that belong to a cake. The square at the bottom center is the cake base. The oval with two vertical lines to its right forms the cake's upper layer and candles. The teardrop shape in the upper left becomes the flame on top of one candle. The curved smile line on the left is the bottom edge of the plate or frosting. Drag each piece toward the center and arrange them: place the square as the main body, set the oval layer on top, align the two vertical lines as candles, and position the teardrop as the flame.
- Once the cake is correctly assembled, the page flips automatically to the caterpillar page. If the page does not flip, double-check that every candle and the flame are aligned properly โ a slightly off piece will not register.
- On the caterpillar page, start with the body. The two overlapping circles in the upper left and the two open semicircles on the right side are the body segments. Drag them into a horizontal row: a large circle for the head on the left, followed by three more rounded segments to its right.
- Add the face details. The two small black dots in the middle of the page become the eyes on the head circle. The small V-shape near the upper right becomes the smiling mouth. The two small curved lines near the left side become the antennae on top of the head.
- Finish the caterpillar with its feet or other details using the remaining shapes as needed. When the assembly is complete and all pieces are in the right place, a large green checkmark appears over the caterpillar to confirm the level is finished.
Strategy & Reasoning
The level tests visual association rather than calculation. Each page scatters both relevant and irrelevant shapes, and the player must filter out the distractors. On the cake page, the triangle and the extra teardrop at the bottom are decoys โ a birthday cake does not need a triangle or a second flame. On the caterpillar page, the square, the triangle, and the trapezoid are left over because the target picture uses only circles, lines, and dots.
The reason this works as a puzzle is that every shape is drawn as a line outline, so at first glance they all look like abstract fragments. The trick is to mentally overlay the target object ("cake") or ("caterpillar") onto the page and match each feature to a shape. Alternatives like tapping the shapes or rotating them do not work โ the pieces must be dragged and dropped into position to snap together. The game gives you visual feedback when a piece is in the right spot by snapping it into place.
Tips & Common Mistakes
- Do not try to use every shape on the page; some are deliberate decoys. The triangle, the square, and the trapezoid on the caterpillar page do not belong on the insect and should be left where they are.
- Do not drag pieces too far or at the wrong angle โ they only snap when they are close to their correct position, so work in small, deliberate movements.
- Do not skip the cake page and move straight to the caterpillar; the page flip only happens after you correctly assemble the cake, and the caterpillar puzzle will not unlock otherwise.
