Brain Test 5 Level 82 Walkthrough

medium

Brain Test 5 Level 82 is a three-part rescue chase. Use the room setup to save the girl, use the outdoor props to stop the thief, and then trigger the hidden policeman so he can arrest the criminal.

Board Notes

Layout: Level 82 tells a crime story across three scenes: a girl threatened by a striped thief in a room, an outdoor stop-him page with a wheelbarrow, and a police scene with a van and a red phone booth.
Goal: Save the girl, stop the criminal, and then bring in a policeman to finish the arrest.
Opening: The first scene is solved by changing the room setup around the attacker instead of dragging the girl directly. The second uses the outdoor prop arrangement to stop him. The last scene points to the police booth and van as the important objects.
Danger Zone: The van looks like the obvious answer on the last screen, but the policeman only appears after the correct hidden trigger is used.
Mechanics: Level 82 is a short rescue-to-arrest escalation with one new environmental trick on each page.
