Brain Test Level 293 Walkthrough & Answer
Level 293★★★★★
Guide by LevelWalks
Brain Test: Tricky Puzzles Level 293 sits about 98% 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 293:** Get the astronaut to Mars
## Answer
Drag Mars (the red planet) to the astronaut rather than the astronaut to Mars. Move the destination, not the traveler.
## Step-by-Step Walkthrough
An astronaut and the solar system are shown. Flying the astronaut to Mars would take too long. Instead, drag Mars closer to the astronaut. The planet is a movable object in Brain Test's world.
Here is exactly how to solve Brain Test Level 293:
1. Read the question carefully — Brain Test loves wordplay and misdirection.
2. Look at every element on screen, including the question text itself.
3. Drag Mars to the astronaut instead of trying to fly the astronaut to Mars.
4. If you are stuck, remember that Brain Test rewards lateral thinking over logical answers.
## Why It's Tricky
Distance-as-obstacle thinking makes you plan elaborate journeys. Brain Test's world has no physics constraints on planet movement — you can drag Mars like any other object. The impossibility is only in your assumptions about what's movable.
## Why This Level Is Tricky
The hardest Brain Test levels require a systematic multi-step approach: first identify all interactive elements, then test each interaction type (tap, drag, pinch, tilt, shake). After exhausting single actions, try combinations — drag one element onto another, or perform actions in a specific sequence. Document what you've tried to avoid repeating. 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 293:
- 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.
Tips
- Brain Test regularly breaks the fourth wall — your phone and your body are part of the game.
- The game's interface (buttons, text, counters) can be manipulated as puzzle elements.
- Remember: Brain Test Level 293 has a difficulty rating of 5/5 — this is a tough puzzle that requires creative or multi-step reasoning.
