Tricky Story 2 Level 28 Walkthrough
Tricky Story 2 Level 28 is a defense scene where Riley avoids Claire's drink attack by stacking better protection around herself and her date. Cycle through the balloons, umbrella, bubble shield, tall barriers, and borrowed jacket until Claire's splash can no longer reach Riley.
Board Notes
- Layout
- The level takes place at a party with Riley and her date in the center, Claire on the left preparing the drink attack, and side props like balloons, an umbrella, a bubble shield, hanging greenery, a tall red barrier, and a black jacket that can be borrowed later.
- Goal
- Help Riley avoid Claire's drink attack. The level only clears after Riley's side has enough protection that Claire's splash threat is fully neutralized.
- Opening
- Start with the simple shield props first, then move to the heavier barriers when the splash threat remains too strong.
- Danger Zone
- The first shield is never enough on its own. If the meter stalls, keep layering defenses instead of reusing the same weak cover.
- Mechanics
- This is a protection-stacking puzzle. Each new prop adds more cover between Claire and Riley until the attack route is completely blocked.
Quick Tips for Tricky Story 2 Level 28 (spoiler-free)
- Use the smaller protective props early, then upgrade to the umbrella, the tall barrier, and the borrowed jacket once the splash still looks dangerous.
- Focus on one color at a time: finish the cleanest grouping, then reassess the whole board before the next move.
- If the board feels stuck, look for the color with the cleanest path and use that to regain space.
How to Solve Tricky Story 2 Level 28 — Full Solution
- Start by placing the lighter shield props, such as the balloon cluster or bubble-style cover, between Claire and Riley.
- Upgrade Riley's protection with the large umbrella once the first shield still leaves her exposed.
- Keep building cover with the next vertical barrier, such as the hanging greenery or the tall red protective stack.
- Borrow the black jacket in the late phase so Riley gains another layer of protection after the larger screens are already in place.
- Finish once Claire's drink attack is fully blocked and Riley can stand beside her date without any splash reaching her.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Stopping after the first cute shield even though Riley is still in the direct line of attack.
- Ignoring the later heavier barriers and jacket because the balloons looked protective enough.
