Tricky Story 3 Level 44 Walkthrough

hard

Tricky Story 3 Level 44 is a timed dungeon escape where a large white ghost monster chases Cece and Lucien through a crypt. Wooden beams, stacked crates, and a torch line the stone corridors. 'Magic will hold the monster back for a while' — temporary barriers buy exploration time. Across 10 rounds, they search for the exit while recasting barriers whenever the ghost breaks through. Story dialogue reveals the stakes: 'Give that back to me!' 'Not a chance!' 'Then you'll have to stay here!'

Board Notes

Layout
A dark dungeon/crypt with stone brick walls, wooden support beams, stacked crates, and a torch mounted on the wall. A large white ghost/monster looms from above. Lucien (white outfit, dark hair) and Cece crouch below. Magic sparkles and barrier effects are visible.
Goal
Escape from the ghost monster across 10 rounds (0/10 to 9/10) by casting magic barriers, using dungeon objects, and finding the exit before time runs out.
Opening
'Magic will hold the monster back for a while' — cast the first barrier to buy time. Grab the torch and start searching the dungeon for escape tools.
Danger Zone
Magic barriers are temporary and break after a few rounds. The ghost pursues relentlessly once a barrier fades. 'This will hold the monster back for a while' — each recast buys less time. Wasting rounds exploring dead ends while the barrier is up leaves no margin for error.
Mechanics
A timed escape puzzle. Magic barriers delay the ghost but expire. The torch provides light for searching dark corridors. Crates can be moved to block paths or reveal exits. Each round is a choice: explore further or recast the barrier. Story dialogue advances: 'Give that back to me!' 'Not a chance!' 'Then you'll have to stay here!'

Quick Tips for Tricky Story 3 Level 44 (spoiler-free)

  • Cast barriers strategically — explore fast while they hold. The torch and movable crates are essential. Act fast between barrier casts.
  • Focus on one color at a time: finish the cleanest grouping, then reassess the whole board before the next move.
  • Think in chain clears. The best move is the one that sets up the next two moves, not just the quickest current match.

How to Solve Tricky Story 3 Level 44 — Full Solution

  1. 'Magic will hold the monster back for a while' — cast the first barrier to hold off the white ghost.
  2. Grab the torch from the wall bracket to light the dark corridor.
  3. Tap the stacked crates and barrels along the corridor to search for tools and clear the path.
  4. Drag a crate to block the corridor behind you — slows the ghost when the barrier fades.
  5. 'This will hold the monster back for a while' — recast the barrier to buy more time.
  6. 'Give that back to me!' — the ghost guards a key item on the ground. Tap it to grab it despite the ghost's rage.
  7. Use the torch to light the next corridor — tap the wooden beams and barrel stacks to find the passage.
  8. Drag another barrel to block the ghost as it breaks through the barrier.
  9. Tap the exit door at the end of the corridor — the key item unlocks it.
  10. 'Not a chance!' 'Then you'll have to stay here!' — escape through the door before the ghost catches up.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Exploring dead ends while the barrier is active — prioritize the most promising paths.
  • Forgetting to recast the barrier — the ghost catches up quickly once it breaks.
