🧩 Level Information

• Level Number: 242
• Question: Swipe and connect the faces
• Difficulty: Normal

🎯 Objective

Swipe across multiple face icons lined up on the screen in a single stroke without lifting your finger to connect all of them.

📝 Step-by-Step Instructions

1. First, quickly check the number and arrangement (rows, columns, diagonal positions) of the face icons on the screen.
2. Choose a face at a convenient starting edge (the very edge or corner), and place your finger on it.
3. Without lifting your finger, slowly swipe to an adjacent face, sliding from face to face to connect them with a line.
4. You can sometimes move diagonally as well as up, down, left, and right, so use diagonal movements to create a path when faces are hard to reach.
5. While trying not to pass through the same face multiple times, consider a route that passes through all faces, continuing the swipe in a maze-like manner.
6. Without lifting your finger from the screen, stop the swipe when you trace the last face.
7. If all faces are connected by a line, you have cleared the level.

💡 Hints

• Instead of tapping, a 'single-stroke swipe without lifting your finger' from the first to the last face is required.
• Starting from an edge face (corner or outermost) makes it easier to gather the other faces.
• Movements are not limited to up, down, left, and right; if faces are close, you can often connect them diagonally too.
• By roughly imagining the 'single-stroke' route in your mind first, you can avoid going back and forth over the same faces.
• If you accidentally lift your finger, you'll have to start over, so if you get lost on the path, lift your finger once and replan from the beginning.

🧠 Analysis and Key Points

This stage is a single-stroke puzzle where you must connect multiple 'face' icons on the screen with a single swipe. Although the operation is intuitive in Brain Test, the key points are 'not lifting your finger midway' and 'pre-imagining a route through all the faces.' Starting from an edge face makes it easier to gather the central faces later and helps avoid getting stuck. There is no time limit or complex mechanics, and no limit on the number of tries, so it is a thought-based stage where you can experiment with routes to find the optimal swiping order.

🔍 Common Mistakes

• Trying to connect the faces by 'tapping' one by one and failing to connect the line.
• Accidentally lifting the finger and not completing a single-stroke, which requires restarting.
• Believing movement is only possible up, down, left, and right, and getting stuck by not using diagonal moves.
• Starting from a central face and leaving the edge faces, making it difficult to plan a route.
• Choosing a long route that passes through the same face multiple times, making it impossible to reach the last face.

🎉 Advice After Clearing

You successfully connected all the faces with a single stroke! If you can properly imagine the swipe path, you will be able to consistently clear this type of puzzle. In the next level, a different kind of thinking will be required, so challenge yourself without being constrained by fixed ideas.
