Your objective: Help Maddie get a makeover to look like Riley.
Welcome to Tricky Story Story 2 Level 41! A brand new extra chapter opens after the grand finale. To help true heir Riley conduct a secret investigation cover, best friend Maddie (curly-haired girl in white dress in the center) needs to completely transform and disguise herself to look like Riley. You can refer to Riley's iconic orange hair casual look in the mirror frame in the upper left corner. This level's core mechanism is action counter mode (0/9). You need to make full use of hair dye, facial cleanser, scissors on the glass coffee table in the bedroom, as well as the vanity table, computer desk, wardrobe and curling iron and jump rope on the floor. Each successful image shaping or item interaction will add "+1" to the progress bar. This guide will provide you with 9 super detailed steps that 100% restore the screen elements to help you perfectly clear!
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.
- Pour Orange Hair Dye from Coffee Table into Water (Progress 1/9): Observe the glass round coffee table in the front row. An orange packaged hair dye is on it. Click and hold it and pour it into the white large water basin next to it filled with clear liquid.
- Hand to Maddie to Wash Hair and Dye Bright Orange (Progress 2/9): Drag the stirred orange hair dye water basin directly to Maddie's head, instantly dyeing her original black fluffy curly hair into the same orange-yellow long hair as Riley.
- Use Large Scissors on Ground to Trim Excess Hair (Progress 3/9): Click the red-handled large scissors placed at the edge of the carpet in the lower right of the glass coffee table. Lift it and drag it to the side of Maddie's hair to neatly cut off excess messy hair, making her hairstyle arc approach Riley's.
- Lift Blue Flat Iron Under Computer Desk (Progress 4/9): On the floor under the white computer desk on the left, next to the gray case, a blue hair straightener/curling iron is lying quietly. Hold it to lift it up and drag it to Maddie's bangs to iron and pull once, locking the hairstyle texture.
- Apply High-End Pink Isolation Cleanser on Vanity Table (Progress 5/9): Move your gaze to the pink European vanity table on the right. A bottle of pink isolation cream/facial cleanser is on the left side of the mirror. Drag the cleanser to apply and circle on Maddie's face to eliminate skin tone difference.
- Use Glass Milk Cup on Coffee Table to Supplement Physical Energy (Progress 6/9): Click the cup of white pure milk placed on the glass coffee table. Drag it to feed to Maddie's mouth to let her drink it all at once, improving basic physical energy and rosy complexion. Progress bar successfully adds 1.
- Move Away Jump Rope on Floor in Lower Right Corner (Progress 7/9): Outside the pink plush carpet in the lower right corner, a green sports jump rope with brown handles is lying. Hold and drag the jump rope to move it to the right edge of the room to clear the foot path for Maddie to walk.
- Pull Open Left Door of Middle White Large Wardrobe (Progress 8/9): Click the long cabinet door with handle on the left side of the tall white large wardrobe in the middle. Pull the cabinet door to the left to reveal the clothing assets inside (Riley's same denim suit clothing).
- Put Riley's Classic Blue Denim Outfit on Maddie (Progress 9/9): Take out a set of light blue denim jacket and denim long pants from the open wardrobe (completely consistent with the reference in the upper left corner). Drag it and precisely cover and put it on Maddie's white dress (progress bar fills to 9/9 full). Maddie completely transforms into a "replica Riley", confidently wearing a black and white skull backpack. Makeover counterattack great success for perfect clearance!
Pro Tips
Use these tips to make things easier — they cover the common traps and fastest route through.
- Multi-finger operation crazy hand speed: Pouring hair dye (Step 1) and picking up blue straightener on ground (Step 4) are all on the left half screen. In the first 5 seconds of opening, you can use your right hand to quickly pour hair dye while your left hand picks up the electric clip on the ground. Multi-finger parallel can save at least 5 seconds.
- Strictly follow "dye hair then cut hair" sequence: In hard coding algorithm, you must first use orange hair dye (Step 2) to completely dye hair into orange-yellow color. Only then will the system allow you to use large scissors (Step 3) and curling iron for hairstyle fine-tuning. Cutting black hair in advance will be automatically bounced back to original position due to triggering logic conflict.
