Overview

Need help with this puzzle? Here's a clear, step-by-step guide so you can solve it fast.

Your objective: Help Riley gain strength and get Claire's phone back.

Welcome to Tricky Story Story 2 Level 15! Claire is preparing to use her phone to spread photos smearing Riley. The two girls have erupted in an intense frontal phone tug-of-war in the locker room. At this time, Riley is obviously at a disadvantage with insufficient strength. This level's core mechanism is counter mode (0/10). You must make full use of supplies on benches, equipment on walls, and even surrounding cheerleaders and hidden small animals within 60 seconds to continuously execute 10 successful strength buffs, visual interference or mental support operations. Each correct interaction will add "+1" to the progress bar. Collect 10 successful assists to help Riley push back Claire and firmly seize the phone back!

Step-by-Step Walkthrough

Here's the complete solution. Follow these 10 steps in order — each one is a concrete action you take on screen.

1. Feed Energy Drink on Bench to Riley (Progress 1/10): Observe the wooden bench in the middle with a blue and yellow functional energy drink (Energy Drink) on it. Click and hold the drink can and drag it to Riley's mouth to let her drink it, instantly activating her basic muscle strength.
2. Use TV Remote to Turn On Wall Screen (Progress 2/10): Next to the energy drink is a black TV remote (Remote). Press and hold the remote and drag it upward pointing to the huge black flat-screen TV overhead.
3. Play Inspirational Fighting Video for Mental Empowerment (Progress 3/10): After the TV is turned on, click the TV screen to switch channels and play passionate bodybuilding or martial arts videos, allowing Riley's combat awareness and fighting spirit to break through the upper limit. Progress bar successfully adds 1.
4. Click "OFC" Muscle Man Poster on Left Wall (Progress 4/10): Move your view to the "OFC" poster (with a muscular character drawn on it) on the left locker side. Continuously click the poster with your finger. The poster shaking will release invisible muscle Buff special effects.
5. Shake Black Backpack on Bench (Progress 5/10): Click the black student backpack (Backpack) on the right side of the bench. Press and hold it and shake it up and down violently, open the zipper to take out a hidden rolling grip bar or energy bar and drag it to Riley.
6. Guide Back Row Cheerleaders to Cheer Loudly (Progress 6/10): Click the two cheerleader girls holding blue shiny pom-poms standing in the left back. Click them frantically to make them shout slogans and jump up to cheer, stacking full field momentum for Riley like crazy.
7. Turn On Right Sink Faucet (Progress 7/10): Notice the white tile sink (Sink) hanging on the right wall. Click the metal faucet valve on it to turn it on. The spraying rapid water sound will distract Claire's stalemate concentration.
8. Continuously Click Dark "Mouse Hole" in Wall Corner (Progress 8/10): Directly below the sink, there is a small black mouse hole (Mouse Hole) at the wall root. Continuously click the mouse hole 3 times quickly to summon hidden small animals.
9. Use Drilled Out Mouse to Scare Claire's Hand Loose (Progress 9/10): A gray little mouse drills out of the hole and scurries along the floor all the way to the feet of Claire in a pink dress. Claire screams in fright and the pulling force in her hand is instantly severely weakened.
10. Click Male Protagonist Liam to Apply Final Blow (Progress 10/10): At the moment when all the previous Buffs are stacked and Claire is scared loose by the mouse (progress bar reaches 9/10), click the male protagonist Liam on the right who is anxiously scratching his hair and shout to cheer for Riley. Riley's eyes harden and she instantly bursts out amazing divine power (progress bar fills to 10/10), throwing Claire's whole person with bag and all onto the ground, completely seizing back the orange phone with photos to perfectly clear the level!

Pro Tips

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

• Opening seamless triple click: Taking energy drink (Step 1), using remote to turn on TV (Step 2) and clicking poster (Step 4) can be completed in one go in the first 8 seconds of opening regardless of order. Multi-touch simultaneous dragging can greatly outrun the time countdown in the upper right corner.
• Ignore completely locked textures: The iron louver under the locker and the drain pipe under the sink are all non-interactive static rendering dead layers. Random clicking is purely wasting countdown.
