Tricky Test 2 Level 7

Overview

This level is a category trick disguised as a size-ordering puzzle. The instruction at the top reads "Tap the fruits, from smallest to biggest." Stacked vertically on screen are three objects: a small cherry at the top with a speech bubble labeled "CHERRY", a carrot in the middle labeled "CARROT", and a large pineapple at the bottom labeled "PINEAPPLE". There is an OK button at the bottom. The trap is the word "fruits": the carrot is a vegetable, not a fruit, so it is excluded from the order entirely. You only tap the two fruits — cherry first (small), then pineapple (big) — and leave the carrot alone.

• Difficulty: Regular
• Estimated moves: 2 taps

Step-by-Step Solution

1. Read the instruction "Tap the fruits, from smallest to biggest." Notice the word "fruits" — only fruits count, not vegetables.
2. Identify the objects: the cherry is a fruit, the pineapple is a fruit, and the carrot is a vegetable.
3. The smallest fruit is the cherry (top of the screen). Tap the cherry once. A small number "1" appears next to it.
4. Do NOT tap the carrot. It is a vegetable and is not part of the ordering. Leave it untouched.
5. The biggest fruit is the pineapple (bottom of the screen). Tap the pineapple once. A small number "2" appears next to it (the pineapple may split/burst on tap, which is just its tap animation).
6. With the cherry marked 1 and the pineapple marked 2, the level completes automatically; the carrot stays unmarked in the middle and the success animation plays.

Strategy & Reasoning

The puzzle hinges on the category word "fruits." On a literal size basis, the objects physically stack as cherry (small), carrot (medium), pineapple (large), and a naive player taps cherry → carrot → pineapple. But that is wrong because the carrot is a root vegetable, not a fruit. The instruction only asks you to tap fruits, so the carrot is not part of the sequence at all.

The game confirms this in the solved frame: the cherry is labeled 1, the pineapple is labeled 2, and the carrot has no number next to it. The carrot sits there untouched while the success animation plays. If you had tapped the carrot, the game would have counted it as a wrong step.

This is a recurring Tricky Test 2 pattern: read the noun in the instruction carefully and only interact with objects that belong to that category. "Fruits" excludes vegetables, even when the vegetable sits physically between two fruits in size.

Tips & Common Mistakes

• Common mistake: Tapping the carrot because it is physically between the cherry and the pineapple in size. The carrot is a vegetable and must be skipped.
• Common mistake: Tapping pineapple before cherry. The order is smallest to biggest, so cherry (small) is first, pineapple (big) second.
• Common mistake: Tapping the OK button after marking the fruits. The level completes on its own once the two fruits are tapped in order; OK is not required.
• Tip: When in doubt about whether something is a fruit, remember: carrots are root vegetables.
• Tip: After tapping the cherry, look for the gold "1" marker before tapping the pineapple, to make sure the first tap registered.
