🧩 Level Information

• Level Number:43
• Question:Add ice water to rice
• Difficulty:Easy

🎯 Objective

Combine the ice and water on the screen properly and execute according to the instruction "Add ice water to rice."

📝 Steps to Solve

1. First, observe the screen and confirm the rice in the bowl (or donburi).
2. Next, look for "ice" and "water (cup, bottle, pitcher, etc.)" somewhere on the screen.
3. Long press the piece of ice with your finger and drag it over the rice, then release it. The ice is placed on the rice.
4. Then, tap the container with water to tilt it or drag the container itself over the rice, and release it at a position where the water spills over the rice.
5. When both ice and water are added to the rice, the stage is cleared.

💡 Hints

• First, try to find the three elements "rice," "ice," and "water" on the screen.
• You can drag the ice into the rice. Just tapping it won't work.
• The water should be poured onto the rice by tilting or dragging the cup or bottle. The key is to have both ice and water on top of the rice.

🧠 Explanation & Points

The question and the answer are exactly the same "Add ice water to rice," making it a so-called "execute as it is" stage. Instead of fiddling with letters or order, you just need to really add ice and water to the rice as a straightforward task. Players are required to carefully observe the objects on screen, find the "ice" and "water," and add them to the rice through dragging or tilting actions. Brain Test contains stages where "doing as the text says is correct" and stages where it's necessary to read between the lines, and this issue falls into the former. On the other hand, overthinking might lead to considering unnecessary things like a gimmick to create cold rice or rearranging letters, delaying the realization of the simple drag operation. The operation is as simple as dragging the ice onto the rice and moving to pour water, with almost no strictness about timing or order. Therefore, the difficulty is low, but it serves as a review-level for the Brain Test's "observe and act as is" thinking rule.

🔍 Common Mistakes

• Trying to tap or long press the rice repeatedly to see if something changes.
• Feeling satisfied with only adding ice or only adding water and not realizing both are required.
• Assuming the ice or water containers are part of the background and not recognizing them as draggable objects.
• Running around looking for "ice water" as a "single item" and not realizing you can operate the ice and water separately.
• Overthinking by rearranging letters or converting them to kanji, believing there is some trick with the text.

🎉 Post-Clear Advice

Ice water has been successfully added to the rice. As instructed, acting straightforwardly was the correct answer. In the next stage, a slightly twisted idea might be needed.
