Brain Test Level 230 Walkthrough & Answer
Level 230★★★★★
Guide by LevelWalks
By Level 230 of Brain Test: Tricky Puzzles, you've already cleared 229 puzzles, which is exactly the moment the design starts to use that confidence against you. This one is built for players who've stopped reading the question carefully.
## Question
**Brain Test Level 230:** Which shape doesn't belong?
## Answer
All shapes are blue except one that's very slightly different shade. Or all have even sides except one. Look at both color AND geometry.
## Step-by-Step Walkthrough
Multiple shapes are shown. The odd one out differs in a subtle way — slightly different color shade, different number of sides, or different orientation. Check both visual properties and geometric properties systematically.
Here is exactly how to solve Brain Test Level 230:
1. Read the question carefully — Brain Test loves wordplay and misdirection.
2. Look at every element on screen, including the question text itself.
3. Compare shapes on multiple dimensions: color, number of sides, size, and orientation.
4. If you are stuck, remember that Brain Test rewards lateral thinking over logical answers.
## Why It's Tricky
Single-feature comparison means you check ONE attribute (color OR shape) and stop. The odd-one-out differs on a less obvious attribute that requires multi-dimensional comparison. Real intelligence is the ability to compare across multiple features simultaneously.
## Why This Level Is Tricky
For difficulty 4, expand your toolkit: try shaking the device, using the volume rocker, covering the camera, or pressing the home button area. Also try dragging seemingly static elements like the level number, score display, or hint button. Brain Test treats everything on screen as a potential puzzle piece at this tier. 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 230:
- Tapping the most obvious on-screen element without reading the full question first.
- Ignoring the question text as a potential interactive element — in Brain Test, words on screen can often be dragged, tapped, or used as part of the solution.
- Giving up too quickly instead of experimenting with device gestures like tilting, shaking, or using multiple fingers.
Tips
- If the obvious answer seems too easy, it probably is — look for the twist.
- Brain Test rewards questioning fundamental assumptions about how puzzles work.
- Remember: Brain Test Level 230 has a difficulty rating of 4/5 — it requires advanced lateral thinking.
