Tricky Story Level 164 – Save Riley, Beat the Bullies!

Overview

This guide covers everything you need to clear this stage — answers, steps, and pro tips.

Your objective: Help Liam defeat all the boys and protect Riley.

Welcome to Tricky Story Story 2 Level 14! Riley is cornered by bad students in the school gym's men's locker room. The male protagonist Liam steps forward and engages in a frontal melee with the leading bald bully. This level's core mechanism is counter mode (0/9). You need to make full use of all functional props and decorations scattered on the locker room floor, in lockers, and on walls. By continuously executing 9 times to stack upper limit Buffs for Liam, or perform various funny physical weakening and mental interference on the bald bully, each successful operation will add "+1" to the progress bar. Finally, perfectly collect 9/9 points to assist Liam with one punch to determine the outcome!

Step-by-Step Walkthrough

Here's the complete solution. Follow these 9 steps in order — each one is a concrete action you take on screen.

1. Feed Whole Bag of Bread to Liam for Energy (Progress 1/9): Click the middle layer of the open blue locker in the middle. Press and hold the bag of bread (Bread Buns) inside and drag it to Liam's mouth on the left to let him eat it, improving basic stamina.
2. Feed Fried Chicken Bucket to Trigger Liam's Fighting Spirit (Progress 2/9): Click the lower layer of the same locker again. Press and hold the steaming family fried chicken bucket (Fried Chicken Bucket) and drag it to Liam to eat, making his combat power burst and upgrade.
3. Use Smelly Sock to Stun Bald Bully (Progress 3/9): An original smelly sock (Smelly Sock) emitting green poisonous gas is lying on the left ground. Press and hold this smelly sock and drag it directly to accurately buckle it on the bald bully's face on the right, using the stench to reduce his agility.
4. Throw Red Demon Mask for Scare (Progress 4/9): Click the red Japanese Hannya demon mask (Demon Mask) on the floor in the lower left corner. Lift it and drag it to release it in front of the bald bully, using the terrifying mask to destroy his psychological defense.
5. Hand Liam Microphone to Release Sonic Attack (Progress 5/9): Click the black wireless microphone (Microphone) dropped in the center of the road. Drag it to Liam's mouth. Liam will pick up the microphone and let out a high-decibel battle roar, shocking the whole field.
6. Use Metal Water Bucket to Splash Water Making Him Slip (Progress 6/9): Click the metal water bucket (Water Bucket) in the lower right corner filled with more than half a bucket of water. Lift it and aim at the bald bully's legs and feet on the right to splash it over, making him lose balance on the wet floor.
7. Click Lower Left Potted Plant to Create Flying Leaf Interference (Progress 7/9): After the prop bar and ground items are cleared, click the green potted plant (Potted Plant) in the lower left corner. Continuously click it quickly to make its leaves fall or the flowerpot shake, attracting the opponent's distraction.
8. Click Large Discount Poster on Left Wall (Progress 8/9): Move your view to the far left locker side wall where a conspicuous red "70% OFF SUPER SALE" discount poster is posted. Click the poster with your finger to pull it, triggering a small environmental interference sound effect.
9. Click Handsome Guy Photo on Top of Locker (Progress 9/9): Finally, click the male portrait photo (Portrait Photo) posted in the center of the top of the locker. After clicking, the photo falls and hits the bald bully on the head. Liam sees his completely distracted flaw (progress bar reaches 9/9 full), directly swings a powerful right hook to knock the bully out with one hit to clear the level!

Pro Tips

Use these tips to make things easier — they cover the common traps and fastest route through.

• Multi-point interaction flow to grab seconds: The smelly sock (Step 3), microphone (Step 5) and water bucket (Step 6) on the locker room floor do not need to wait for their respective special effects to finish playing. Three fingers can click simultaneously and drag to corresponding targets respectively, which can quickly gain 3 progress points in 5 seconds.
• Filter irrelevant static layers: The brown wooden bench against the wall behind the bad boy on the right and all the ventilation grille iron nets on the upper and lower rows of the locker are all dead assets. Random clicking not only does not add progress but also wastes your precious 60-second time limit.
