Tricky Test 2 Level 85

Overview

• Difficulty: Regular
• Estimated moves: 2

A wall power outlet is drawn near the top of the screen, and an electrical plug with two prongs hangs below it on a cord. The prompt reads "Help Jack turn on the light bulb." The plug is not plugged in, and there is no lit bulb visible initially. The solution has two stages: connect the power, then screw in the bulb.

Step-by-Step Solution

1. Drag the plug upward so its two prongs line up with and insert into the wall outlet. The plug clicks into the outlet.
2. Once power is connected, a light-bulb socket appears (under Jack, the skull).
3. Place two fingers on the bulb/socket and twist/rotate the bulb to screw it in.
4. The bulb lights up and the level completes.

Strategy & Reasoning

The puzzle is a two-step setup. First, the plug must be physically moved to the outlet to supply power. The plug starts below the outlet, so you drag it straight up. After power is connected, a bulb socket appears (you cannot screw in a bulb before there is power). The second step is a realistic screw-in: rotate the bulb in its socket with a two-finger twisting gesture. Tapping the bulb does nothing; it must be twisted. The skull (Jack) appears once the circuit is live, and the bulb lights when fully screwed in.

The outlet is a small double socket near the top of the screen. The plug hangs below on a cord with two prongs pointing upward. After you insert the plug, a cartoon skull appears holding an empty bulb socket. You then place two fingers on the bulb and twist it clockwise to screw it in. Once the bulb is fully seated, it lights up. The cord runs from the bottom of the screen up to the plug. There is no on/off switch; the sequence is plug in, then screw in the bulb.

The plug must be dragged precisely onto the outlet; if you drop it nearby it will fall back down. Once seated, the socket and skull fade in. The bulb then appears in the skull's hands. Use a two-finger rotation gesture on the bulb to screw it clockwise into the socket. A partial twist is not enough; rotate until the bulb seats and lights. There is no light switch to flip; power plus a seated bulb is all that is needed.

Make sure the plug is fully inserted before looking for the bulb. The skull holding the socket only appears after power is connected. The two-finger twist on the bulb must rotate it several degrees clockwise. Once lit, the level completes. There is no separate switch.

Tips & Common Mistakes

• Tapping the outlet. The outlet cannot be tapped; you must drag the plug to it.
• Trying to screw the bulb before plugging in. The socket does not exist until power is connected.
• Tapping the bulb. The bulb must be twisted/rotated, not tapped.
• Misaligning the plug. Line the prongs up with the outlet slots before releasing.
