Tricky Story 2: Brain Twist is a delightfully absurd addition to the lateral-thinking puzzle genre. If you enjoy games that actively try to trick you and make you laugh at your own assumptions, this sequel delivers in spades. The cartoon presentation is incredibly vibrant and full of expressive animations that instantly give each puzzle the feel of an interactive Saturday morning comic strip.
The real joy comes from how utterly ridiculous the solutions are. The game trains you to stop looking at the obvious answer and start experimenting with the absurd—like moving the actual text of the question to reveal a key, or shaking your device to wake up a sleeping character. It can occasionally cross the line into being a little too abstract, where a solution feels random rather than clever, but the abundant hints prevent any frustration. It's an excellent, lighthearted brain workout full of genuine charm.
Hundreds of mind-boggling, highly unpredictable riddle scenarios
Charming, expressive cartoon art style and funny voice sound effects
Engaging interactive puzzles that utilize your phone's full hardware features
Perfect casual gameplay for sharpening lateral thinking skills
Consistently witty writing filled with humor and unexpected punchlines
When confronted with a puzzle, do not always trust the text prompt literally. Inspect the environment for interactable cartoon assets. Try dragging items behind other objects, combining unexpected elements, or physically tilting your phone to uncover hidden items that solve the scene's core dilemma.
The gameplay requires subverting standard gaming rules. You tackle standalone comic strip scenes where solving a riddle relies on finding double meanings or exploiting hidden UI features. An integrated hint system provides step-by-step guidance if a puzzle's abstract solutions prove to be too obscure, ensuring progression never grinds to a complete halt.
Yes, the humor and puzzles are safe, family-friendly, and perfect for encouraging creative, outside-the-box problem solving.
You can tell a lot of the elements were made with AI (art, voices, etc) but it’s a fun game overall and the storyline is interesting. It makes you want to continue playing and reading! It’s like those hour long drama apps that are ridiculous but watch anyway. A note: the ads shown are doubled. When I click out of the video one that just played there’s another ad hidden behind it that I have to wait to exit out of. Annoying.
could be fun, but some of the levels are so unfair. you literally only get 5 hearts and some of the levels have stuff that’s like genuinely how were you even supposed to figure that out unless you looked it up or just wasted a bunch of hearts trying. Some levels have things where if you do the wrong thing(with literally no clue, knowledge, or any sorta help) you just lose a heart. not to mention it’s 600 coins to keep going if you don’t wanna watch an ad and you only get 40 per round.. you do the math. there also some dumb glitch that keeps saying download failed whenever it feels like it and just crashes you out the game and makes you restart the whole thing. Maddie is literally so annoying and I was gonna hate the game a little less when I saw we weren’t gonna forgive her, but then all she did was insert herself and now we’re best friends again after all the stuff she did to us, right… apparently kids games only emphasize forgiveness over knowing when to remove yourself from a toxic friendship because Maddie didn’t deserve Riley at all. then Riley itself is just dumb. literally everything could’ve been avoided but I just think she likes drama. I like her enough to overlook it tho. then when you think the game couldn’t get any worse, there’s a whole section dedicated to maddie and helping her figure out her love life… yea, next. deleted.
Please let us choose our love interest for the villainess story! There’s already dialogue options, please let us have romance options! I don’t want to keep on being locked in to just a bad or a good guy! Maybe have a bad guy and multiple good ones? I don’t just want the Prince! I know you’re using TVIDTD as a base story but don’t just have the same ending! I don’t like the Prince at all!
Today I was trying to play the game as normal and i finish a level and go to the next one. I get stuck on an ad so i leave and come back, I try to move onto the next level and it gives me a pop up saying to download new levels so I do so. It loads. And loads. And loads. The bar is full but nothing happens. I let it sit for a bit and go do other things. I come back and its still loading. I’ve just decided to delete the game and redownload it. I’ll see if I can do an update later to see if it works now or not. But the new update broke my game and now i have to potentially restart the whole thing all over again.
I suggested that we are allow to pick our love interests since there is so many men to choose from. Because I am playing as a villain, I really do expect our ending to be something wicked and that we are really cunning with our victory. In short, I want the ending to be that I am the evil genius
I like the game and the storyline is pretty good. But I keep having these issues where the Internet connection (level data is downloading) says it’s not loading or it’s taking too long to download and then it shuts off the level I’m on or something like that and I can’t get it to load sometimes for a very long time. When my internet connection is perfectly fine.
i understand that games usually have ads when theyre free so they can earn money, but this is just ridiculous. ad everytime you open the app and ads in between EVERY SINGLE LEVEL. i had to delete it because it kept giving me this ad which i could not close. no matter how much times i closed the app, it would keep popping up the same one. honestly an insufferable game. if you enjoy spending more time on ads than the actual game, go for it
The most horrible game ever no joke, the whole time its adds and you get hearts deducted for stupid reasons. Like leaving the level or restarting the level. And then you have to help the people tarnish riley’s image when you literally start off the game as riley and that makes no sense since your literally the main character and is helping the bad guys make her look like a bad person. This game is the worst and i hate it and im glad everybody also thinks the same NEVER MAKE A GAME AGAIN!
