Brain Test Level 168 Walkthrough & Answer

## Question **Brain Test Level 168:** Don't tap the wrong color word ## Answer Read the WORD, not the color the word is printed in. 'Red' written in blue means tap red. ## Step-by-Step Walkthrough Words of color names appear in mismatched font colors (Stroop effect). The instruction is to tap based on what the word SAYS, not the color you see. If 'Blue' is written in red ink, you should tap it when asked for 'Blue.' Here is exactly how to solve Brain Test Level 168: 1. Read the question carefully — Brain Test loves wordplay and misdirection. 2. Look at every element on screen, including the question text itself. 3. Focus on reading the word text, not the ink color — this is the Stroop effect in action. 4. If you are stuck, remember that Brain Test rewards lateral thinking over logical answers. ## Why It's Tricky The Stroop effect is one of psychology's most robust findings. Your brain processes color faster than text, creating interference when they conflict. Brain Test directly implements this well-known cognitive phenomenon as a game mechanic. ## Why This Level Is Tricky Difficulty 4 puzzles in Brain Test often involve meta-awareness — the solution might require interacting with your phone's hardware (volume buttons, tilt sensor) or manipulating the game's UI elements. The puzzle boundary extends beyond the screen content to include the device itself. Late-game levels (151-300) frequently require device interaction — tilting your phone, using multiple fingers, shaking the device, or manipulating screen elements outside the puzzle area. Think beyond the touchscreen for these multi-step solutions. ## Common Mistakes Players frequently make these errors on Level 168: - Overthinking a simple puzzle — sometimes the answer is literally what the question says, with no trick at all. - Not trying to drag or resize on-screen elements, including text, images, and answer options. - Missing that Brain Test sometimes reuses a trick from an earlier level with a slight variation.
