Tricky Story Level Walkthroughs & Solutions

What is Tricky Story?

Tricky Story, subtitled Story 1, is a prank-heavy comic puzzle game from XGame HK, available on iOS and Android. Each level is a single short scene, such as helping a sick girl get ready to meet her husband in Level 1 or helping Anna crash a secret meeting in Level 15, and you clear it by tapping, dragging, opening, choosing, or swiping the right prop onto the right target in the right order. The board is almost always readable at a glance, so the real puzzle is figuring out which short chain of interactions actually advances the story instead of just clicking whatever glows.

The puzzle style shifts as the range continues. The earliest levels are pure scene-order puzzles: use the setup props in sequence and hold back the final trigger until the scene is actually ready, as in Level 1 and Level 15. Around Level 30 and Level 45, the format adds reveal-then-use puzzles, where opening a hiding spot, drawer, or hidden compartment is only half the solve, since the revealed prop still has to be used on the correct target right away or the scene stalls. By Level 60, the format changes again into a composition-fixing puzzle, where the target is not one object but the balance of an entire formal family photo, and the correct move is whichever one improves the group's overall symmetry. Across the 60 published levels, 25 are rated hard, 15 easy, 15 medium, and 5 expert.

How to Play Tricky Story

These tips apply across all Tricky Story levels. For level-specific advice, open any walkthrough from the range browser above.

• Read the character's stated goal before touching anything. The props you actually need are usually tied to what is near the goal, not to whichever object looks brightest.
• Hold the final trigger action back until every setup prop before it has already been used. Rushing the last interaction is the most common way these levels break.
• Keep the middle support actions in the order the scene suggests, even when the objects look interchangeable. Skipping ahead usually stalls the story instead of speeding it up.
• When a drawer, box, or hiding spot opens, assume the level still wants one more move. The hidden prop only counts once it is dragged onto the real target.
• On composition-style levels where you are fixing a whole scene instead of one object, pick whichever option improves the overall visual balance rather than fixating on a single character or prop.
• Ignore background taps that glow or animate but do not move the story forward. Not every clickable object in a scene is part of the actual solve.
• If a scene looks finished but will not close, check whether the prop revealed by your last action is still sitting unused somewhere on the screen.
