Tricky Test 2 Level 59
๐ Walkthrough
Overview
The prompt says "Do this." A large yellow illustration of a smartphone appears in the center of the screen, with the word "Rotate" written on its screen and a curved yellow arrow circling it clockwise from top to right. The image is a direct instruction: physically rotate your device 90 degrees clockwise (turn it into landscape orientation, with the top edge of the phone turning to the right). The accelerometer detects the rotation and the level clears immediately.
- Difficulty: Easy
- Estimated moves: 1 device rotation
Step-by-Step Solution
- Read the instruction "Do this."
- Study the illustration: it shows a yellow smartphone icon with "Rotate" on the screen and a curved arrow going clockwise around it, starting from the top and sweeping toward the right.
- Do NOT tap the phone illustration, swipe on it, or try to spin it with your finger โ it is not interactive.
- Physically pick up your phone and rotate it 90 degrees clockwise, so that the top edge of the phone turns toward the right side of the room. This places the phone in landscape orientation (horizontal).
- The accelerometer detects the orientation change. A success checkmark appears, and the level clears.
- You may rotate the phone back to portrait after the level completes.
Strategy & Reasoning
This level is a "follow the picture" motion puzzle. The illustration literally demonstrates the required action: a phone being rotated clockwise. The word "Rotate" on the phone's screen leaves no ambiguity. The game uses the device's orientation sensor to detect when you have turned it. There are no buttons, no text to drag, and no hidden objects. The only way to pass is to physically move the device. This is in the same family as level 55 (flip the phone face-down) and level 43 (tilt the flashlights). The curved arrow is the key visual cue: it shows clockwise rotation, meaning you turn the phone so the top points to the right (landscape right). Rotating counter-clockwise (top to the left) may also be accepted by the sensor, but following the arrow's direction is the safest bet.
Tips & Common Mistakes
- Mistake: Tapping or swiping the yellow phone illustration. Correct approach: the illustration is a diagram, not a button; you must rotate the real device.
- Mistake: Rotating only 45 degrees or tilting without a full 90-degree turn. Correct approach: turn the phone fully into landscape orientation.
- Mistake: Counter-rotating (top edge to the left) when the arrow shows clockwise. Correct approach: follow the arrow โ top edge to the right.
- Mistake: Trying to spin the image on screen. Correct approach: no on-screen gesture works; move the physical phone.
Additional Notes
This level is intentionally minimal: the only thing on screen is the instruction "Do this" and a diagram of a phone with a curved arrow. There is no hidden button, no text to drag, and no object to tap. The diagram itself is the entire puzzle โ it shows you exactly what physical action to perform. The curved arrow starts at the top of the phone and sweeps clockwise to the right, meaning you rotate the device so its top edge points to the right (landscape right). As soon as the orientation sensor detects landscape, a checkmark appears. If your phone has auto-rotate locked, you may need to unlock it for the level to register. This is one of the simplest motion levels in the pack once you realize the picture is an instruction manual.
