Brain Test Level 231 Walkthrough & Answer
Level 231★★★★★
Guide by LevelWalks
Brain Test: Tricky Puzzles Level 231 sits about 77% through the game's 300-level run — late enough that the obvious patterns no longer work, early enough that the mechanics still favor lateral thinking.
## Question
**Brain Test Level 231:** Navigate through the dark room
## Answer
Increase your phone's actual screen brightness to maximum. The 'dark room' becomes visible.
## Step-by-Step Walkthrough
The screen appears completely black. No amount of tapping reveals anything... until you increase your phone's physical brightness setting to maximum. The room's contents become visible at full brightness.
Here is exactly how to solve Brain Test Level 231:
1. Read the question carefully — Brain Test loves wordplay and misdirection.
2. Look at every element on screen, including the question text itself.
3. Turn your phone's screen brightness to maximum — the room contents are just very dark, not invisible.
4. If you are stuck, remember that Brain Test rewards lateral thinking over logical answers.
## Why It's Tricky
In-game vs. physical controls separation keeps you from adjusting hardware settings during gameplay. Brain Test breaks this barrier by making your phone's brightness a puzzle mechanic. The solution literally exists outside the game's software.
## 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 231:
- Applying real-world logic to a puzzle that rewards absurd lateral thinking.
- Overlooking small UI elements like the level counter, hint button, or settings icon, which sometimes play a role in the solution.
- Assuming the puzzle has only one interactive element when multiple objects might need to be combined.
Tips
- The game's interface (buttons, text, counters) can be manipulated as puzzle elements.
- After 100+ levels, sometimes the trick is that there IS no trick. Accept simple answers too.
- Remember: Brain Test Level 231 has a difficulty rating of 4/5 — it requires advanced lateral thinking.
