Brain Test 5 Level 118 Walkthrough
Brain Test 5 Level 118 is a three-part "Remove the extra shapes" puzzle. On Part 1, thin the row to one triangle, one square, and one circle to match the triangle-in-square target. On Part 2, remove all four triangles plus one square and three circles so the row ends as three squares and one circle to match the nested-squares-with-circle target. On Part 3, remove two of each shape from the four-of-each row so two triangles, two squares, and two circles remain to match the complex multi-shape target.

How to Solve Brain Test 5 Level 118 — Full Solution
- On Part 1, the target is a square with a triangle inside. Tap two of the three blue triangles, two of the three blue squares, and two of the three blue circles so the row ends with one triangle, one square, and one circle.
- Wait for the green check mark, then the page flips to Part 2. The target is now a stack of nested squares with a circle inside.
- On Part 2, tap all four blue triangles to remove them, tap one of the four blue squares, and tap three of the four blue circles. The row should end with three squares and one circle.
- Wait for the green check mark, then the page flips to Part 3. The target is a busier multi-shape pattern that resolves to two of each shape.
- On Part 3, tap two of the four blue triangles, two of the four blue squares, and two of the four blue circles so the row ends with two triangles, two squares, and two circles.
- The third green check mark clears the level.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Tapping the target box at the top of the page thinking it is part of the puzzle — it is just a visual reference and does not register as a removal.
- On Part 2, leaving one triangle in the row by mistake. The target has zero triangles, so the last triangle must be tapped away for the page to clear.
Quick Tips for Brain Test 5 Level 118 (spoiler-free)
- Count the shapes in the target box before tapping. Part 1 needs one of each, Part 2 needs three squares and one circle, and Part 3 needs two of each.
- On Part 2, the target has no triangles at all — you must remove all four triangles, not just three of them.
- The target box at the top is just a visual reference; only taps on the blue shapes in the row below count as removals.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Part 1 shows a target box at the top containing a square with a triangle inside, with a 3x3 grid of blue triangles, squares, and circles below. Part 2 shows a target box containing a stack of nested squares with a circle inside, with a 4x3 grid of the same three blue shape types below. Part 3 shows a target box containing a busier multi-shape pattern with triangles, circles, and squares, with a 4x3 grid of blue shapes below.
- Goal
- Reduce the row of blue shapes on each page to match the target box at the top. Part 1 needs one of each shape. Part 2 needs three squares and one circle, with all triangles removed. Part 3 needs two of each shape.
- Opening
- On Part 1, tap two triangles, two squares, and two circles to leave one of each. On Part 2, tap all four triangles, one square, and three circles to leave three squares and one circle. On Part 3, tap two of each shape to leave two of each.
- Danger Zone
- The target box at the top of each page is decorative — tapping it does not count as a removal. The real risk is removing a shape the target still needs: on Part 2, the target has zero triangles, three squares, and one circle, so leaving even one triangle in the row will not clear the page.
- Mechanics
- Level 118 is a "remove the extras" set where the target box dictates not just which shape types to keep but exactly how many of each. The three pages escalate in target complexity: Part 1 is a symmetric one-of-each, Part 2 is an asymmetric count with no triangles, and Part 3 is a symmetric two-of-each drawn from a busier illustration. The notebook page-turn between pages is the cue that a new target rule has been set, and the green check mark above the row is the signal that the removal count is finally correct.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know how many of each shape to keep in Brain Test 5 Level 118?
The target box at the top of each page shows the exact pattern. Part 1's target has one triangle inside one square, so keep one of each shape. Part 2's target has three nested squares with one circle inside, so keep three squares and one circle and remove all triangles. Part 3's target is a busier multi-shape pattern, so count the shapes inside it — the result is two of each.
Why does Part 2 of Brain Test 5 Level 118 need three squares and one circle, not one of each?
The target box on Part 2 shows three nested squares with a single circle inside, not a "one of each" pattern. The row must match the target exactly, so all four triangles must be removed along with one square and three circles. Leaving a triangle in the row will not clear the page.
