Brain Test Level 188 Walkthrough: Dig with the Hidden Shovel!
Full Walkthrough・Procedure Explanation・Common Mistakes
🧩 Level Information
- Level Number: 188
- Puzzle Statement: Use a shovel to dig by moving the rock on the lower left.
- Difficulty: Normal
🎯 Objective
Find the shovel under the rock in the lower left corner of the screen, and use that shovel to dig the ground to clear the level.
📝 Steps of Solution
- First, press and hold the rock on the lower left of the screen with your finger, then slide and move it aside.
- When the rock is moved aside, a shovel will appear underneath. Tap on the shovel to pick it up.
- Drag the shovel to a place where it looks like it can be dug (a suspicious ground or a location where there might be an objective).
- Drop the shovel above the place you want to dig, or tap that spot several times to dig the ground.
- If the intended item (treasure, item, etc.) appears from the ground, the stage is cleared.
💡 Hints
- A shovel is hidden somewhere on the screen. Let's try moving rocks or items first.
- Especially, the rock on the lower left might be lighter than it looks. Try pressing and holding, then sliding it.
- Once you find the shovel under the rock, drag it to the above the diggable ground.
🧠 Explanation & Points
This stage is a puzzle that tests the concept that "objects on the screen might be movable." At first glance, it may look like a simple scenery, but there's a hidden element where a shovel appears when the rock on the lower left is moved. Players tend to think "I can't dig because I don't have a tool" initially, but in Brain Test, even things that look like part of the background are often draggable. The key point is whether you can leverage this experience. After finding the shovel, just take it to a suspicious ground and dig, so the essence lies in "finding hidden items."
🔍 Common Mistakes
- Trying to dig by tapping wildly on the ground, but nothing happens.
- Dragging all over but missing the rock on the lower left before noticing the shovel.
- Giving up after just tapping the rock once, not trying pressing and holding or sliding.
- Finding the shovel but not dragging it to the right place, leaving it at a random spot and thinking nothing comes out.
🎉 Advice After Clearing
Realizing that a shovel was hidden under what seemed like a part of the background broadens your perspective to "Maybe there are hidden items in other stages too?". In the future, practice the habit of moving suspicious objects to make solving easier.
