Tricky Test 2 Level 37

Overview

This level shows a single yellow octagonal button with a counter above it, and the instruction reads "Tap the yellow button 13 times." The trap is that the on-screen counter glitches and becomes faulty — it shows "-1" and the game displays the message "Oops, it seems that our counter is faulty." The solution is to ignore the broken counter and simply tap the yellow button 13 times by hand.

• Difficulty: Easy
• Estimated moves: 13 taps

Step-by-Step Solution

1. Read the instruction: "Tap the yellow button 13 times."
2. Tap the yellow button repeatedly. Watch the counter above it.
3. Notice that the counter glitches and becomes faulty, displaying "-1" along with the message "Oops, it seems that our counter is faulty."
4. Do not trust the displayed number. Count your taps manually.
5. Continue tapping the yellow button until you have tapped it exactly 13 times.
6. The level will complete once you have tapped 13 times, regardless of what the faulty counter shows.

Strategy & Reasoning

The puzzle looks like a simple tapping-count task, but the game deliberately breaks the counter as a trick. The displayed number becomes unreliable (showing -1), so players might think they are stuck or that the game is buggy. The correct approach is to ignore the faulty on-screen counter and count your own taps, tapping the yellow button exactly 13 times. The game registers your physical taps even though the visual counter is broken. The "faulty counter" message is a deliberate part of the puzzle, not an actual error.

Tips & Common Mistakes

• Mistake: trusting the faulty counter and stopping early. Correct: the counter is broken; count your taps manually.
• Mistake: panicking when the counter shows -1. Correct: that is the intended trick; just tap 13 times by hand.
• Mistake: stopping when you think you have "enough." Correct: tap exactly 13 times, counting each one.
• Mistake: assuming the game has crashed. Correct: the broken counter is the puzzle; keep tapping deliberately.

The reason this is a trick rather than a bug is that the game intentionally breaks the on-screen counter, showing "-1" and the message that the counter is faulty. Players who trust the display think they are stuck, but the game still registers your physical taps. Counting by hand and tapping exactly 13 times completes the level regardless of the misleading visual. The faulty counter is the puzzle's deliberate misdirection.

The key takeaway is that the counter is deliberately broken, showing -1 and a faulty message, so you must count your own taps. The game still registers 13 physical taps regardless of the misleading display. The faulty counter is the puzzle's misdirection, not a real error. Keep tapping deliberately until you reach 13.

In summary, ignore the faulty on-screen counter and tap the yellow button exactly 13 times by hand; the game registers your taps regardless of the broken display.
