Tricky Test 2 Level 105

Overview

This is a quick-reaction level. Across the top, the standard lives hearts and "87 mins" timer sit as usual, but in the middle of the screen a large digital countdown timer runs (starting near 15:00 and ticking downward). A big arrow appears on screen, and a line of text tells you what to do with it. The twist is that the instruction text flips between two opposite rules: sometimes it says "Swipe the opposite way of the arrow", and other times it says "Swipe according to the arrow". The arrow itself points left or right (and later up/down), and its colour (red or green) is just decoration. You must read the text every single time, never trust muscle memory, and swipe correctly before the countdown runs out.

• Difficulty: Hard
• Estimated moves: several quick swipes

Step-by-Step Solution

1. Watch the centre of the screen. A large arrow appears together with one line of text.
2. Read the text carefully before swiping:

• If it says "Swipe the opposite way of the arrow", swipe in the direction OPPOSITE to where the arrow points.
• If it says "Swipe according to the arrow", swipe in the SAME direction the arrow points.

1. For example, when a red arrow points LEFT and the text says "opposite way", swipe your finger to the RIGHT.
2. When a green arrow points RIGHT and the text says "according to the arrow", swipe your finger to the RIGHT.
3. Each correct swipe makes the arrow and text swap to the next prompt. Keep reading the new text and swiping the correct direction.
4. When the arrow turns vertical, swipe up or down using the same rule (opposite vs. according to).
5. Keep answering correctly as fast as you can while the digital timer counts down. The level clears once you have performed the required run of correct swipes.

Strategy & Reasoning

This level punishes reflexes. The natural instinct is to swipe in the direction the arrow points, and for the first prompt that might even work — but the moment the text changes to "opposite way", that reflex loses a life. The arrow colour (red vs. green) is a distraction; it does not change the rule. Only the written instruction decides the correct direction.

The trick is to slow your brain down just enough to read the sentence each time: "opposite" means invert the arrow direction, "according to" means match it. Because the countdown is running, you still have to move quickly after reading, but accuracy beats speed here — one wrong swipe costs a heart.

Trying to memorise a fixed pattern (e.g. "always swipe right") fails, because both the arrow direction and the written rule change from round to round. The only consistent rule is: read the text, then decide.

Tips & Common Mistakes

• Mistake: Swiping in the direction the arrow points every time. Correct approach: Check the text first; "opposite way" means you must reverse the arrow.
• Mistake: Assuming a green arrow means "swipe with it" and a red arrow means "swipe against it". Correct approach: Colour is irrelevant; only the sentence matters.
• Mistake: Rushing and swiping before reading. Correct approach: Read the line, then swipe; one wrong swipe costs a heart.
• Mistake: Forgetting the later vertical prompts. Correct approach: The same opposite/according rule applies to up and down arrows.
