Brain Test Level 293 Walkthrough: Shake the smartphone well

Brain Test Level 293 Walkthrough: Shake the smartphone well
Complete walkthrough, step-by-step guide, and common mistakes
🧩 Level Information
- Level Number:293
- Problem Statement:Long press the mouth and shake the smartphone to mix
- Difficulty:Normal
🎯 Objective
While long pressing the "mouth" part on the screen, shake the smartphone to mix the contents and clear the stage.
📝 Steps to Solve
- First, locate the 'mouth' part (e.g., cup or container spout, mouth mark) displayed on the screen.
- Instead of tapping the 'mouth' part once, long press it by keeping your finger on it.
- While keeping your finger long-pressed on the mouth, shake the smartphone firmly right-left and up-down a few times.
- An animation showing the mixture or state change will occur on the screen after enough shaking.
- Once mixing is complete, the level will automatically clear. Release your finger to confirm the result.
💡 Hints
- The 'mouth' might respond to a long press rather than just a tap.
- If the screen operation alone does not progress, suspect a gimmick involving tilting or shaking the smartphone.
- Try physically shaking the smartphone while long-pressing the mouth. The motion sensor will react, and mixing will occur.
🧠 Analysis and Points
The key point of this stage is in combining two hidden operations. The first is the 'long press' operation. A simple tap does nothing, but a long press on the mouth prepares for mixing, requiring this insight. The second is the physical operation of shaking the smartphone, using the accelerometer. Despite minimal hints on the screen, the Japanese instruction text itself contains the answer, creating a meta-structure where following it by 'long pressing the mouth and shaking the smartphone' solves it. In Brain Test, many levels require trying operations other than the usual tap, such as long press, drag, or shake/tilt the device, and this problem is a typical example. Noticing the clue 'the text is the answer itself' is key.
🔍 Common Mistakes
- Only tapping the mouth repeatedly without trying a long press.
- Attempting to drag the mouth and move it somewhere.
- Trying to complete it on-screen without trying physical operations like shaking or tilting the smartphone.
- Releasing the finger immediately after long pressing, without combining with the shaking motion.
- Pressing the volume or power buttons, expecting a different action.
🎉 Advice After Clearing
Realizing the combination of the 'shake' gimmick using the device itself and the long press can broaden its application range. In the future, being conscious of whether 'the text itself isn't the answer' or 'other operations besides tap are necessary' will allow smoother solving of similar stages.
