Brain Test 2: Tricky Stories Game

Brain Test 2: Tricky Stories drops the usual single riddle-a-screen format for something closer to a comic: each chapter follows a recurring cast — Tom the Cat, Emily, Joe and more — through a self-contained story, from outwitting a lion king to running a farm or hunting monsters. Every panel hides a puzzle that isn't solved by logic alone; the real trick is looking at what's actually on screen instead of what the question implies.

Nothing here is timed, so a session is really about reading each scene twice. The first read sets up the expected answer, and the second finds the detail — an object you can drag, a character you can tap, a word in the question itself — that the puzzle is actually built around. Getting stuck usually means the fix is staring back from the screen, not from more thinking.

Controls

Mouse cursor or finger to select, drag, and move objects around the scene.

Tips

• Read the question literally before assuming what it's asking.
• Try tapping or dragging everything visible in a scene, not just the obvious prop.
• If an answer feels too easy, that's usually the sign it's a trick.

Suited to short breaks rather than long sessions — each story chapter is built from small, self-contained puzzles you can pick up and put down freely.
