Brain Test Level 38 Walkthrough & Answer
Level 38★★★★★
Guide by LevelWalks
Level 38 sits between Brain Test: Tricky Puzzles's broader checkpoints, the kind of in-between puzzle that only really makes sense after you've solved both neighbors.
## Question
**Brain Test Level 38:** Which weighs more: 1 kg of iron or 1 kg of cotton?
## Answer
They weigh the same — 1 kg is 1 kg regardless of the material. Tap the equals sign or both.
## Step-by-Step Walkthrough
Classic trick question. People assume iron is heavier, but 1 kg of anything weighs 1 kg. Tap the equals sign, tap both objects, or tap the number '1 kg' shown on screen.
Here is exactly how to solve Brain Test Level 38:
1. Read the question carefully — Brain Test loves wordplay and misdirection.
2. Look at every element on screen, including the question text itself.
3. They weigh the same — 1 kg is 1 kg regardless of the material.
4. If you are stuck, remember that Brain Test rewards lateral thinking over logical answers.
## Why It's Tricky
Brain Test Level 38 is designed to catch players who think too literally or too logically. The game's core mechanic is to subvert expectations. Most players fail this level on their first try because they approach it with conventional thinking. The key insight is that the game often uses the question text, physical phone gestures, or visual misdirection as part of the puzzle. Once you understand that Brain Test breaks the fourth wall regularly, these puzzles become much more manageable.
## Why This Level Is Tricky
For difficulty 2 levels, apply the elimination method: rule out what clearly doesn't work, then test the remaining options. Check if any on-screen elements can be moved, resized, or combined. Brain Test frequently hides interactive elements in plain sight at this difficulty tier. These early levels (1-50) teach you Brain Test's fundamental trick vocabulary: literal wordplay, tapping hidden elements, and questioning obvious answers. Master these patterns now — they recur throughout the entire game.
## Common Mistakes
Players frequently make these errors on Level 38:
- 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
- Look at the question text itself — the answer might literally be in the words of the question.
- If your first instinct doesn't work, try the opposite approach — Brain Test loves to subvert expectations.
- Remember: Brain Test Level 38 has a difficulty rating of 2/5 — it should be solvable with a simple trick.
