Help Riley defeat all members of Claire's team

Level Overview

Welcome to Tricky Story Story 2 Level 12! The ultimate showdown on the handball court begins. Riley holds a red dodgeball, facing a luxurious defensive formation composed of 5 fierce generals led by Claire. The two strong boys in the front row have built a human wall, firmly protecting Claire in the back row. This level's core mechanism is counter mode (0/7). Directly aiming at Claire in the back row will be ruthlessly blocked by the front row boys. You must follow the physical parabola dotted line to weaken and defeat the front row guards in sequence, then completely solve the two wings, and finally send Claire continuous winning heavy blows. Each hit will add "+1" to the progress bar. Collect 7 critical hits to counterattack and win the championship!

Step-by-Step Walkthrough

1. Aim and Hit Front Left Black-Haired Boy (Progress 1/7): Press and hold the red handball at the bottom of the screen. A purple seamless alignment dotted line will be pulled out. Point the end of the dotted line to the black-haired boy in horse stance in the front left row. Release your hand to throw the ball and hit him.
2. Throw Ball Again to Completely Eliminate Front Left Boy (Progress 2/7): Since the front row boys are physically strong, the first ball will only make him unstable. Drag the red ball again to aim at this black-haired boy and throw it out, completely knocking him down and eliminating him (leaving the field).
3. Throw Ball at Front Right Crew Cut Boy (Progress 3/7): After clearing the front left, point the purple aiming dotted line at the crew cut/bald boy standing in the front right row. Release your hand to throw the ball, accurately hitting his broad chest.
4. Second Critical Hit to Eliminate Front Right Bald Boy (Progress 4/7): Repeat the throwing action and charge the red ball to hit this bald boy again, completely knocking him out of bounds. At this point, the core meat shield defense line in front of Claire has completely collapsed.
5. Turn and Eliminate Left Wing Tall Black Girl (Progress 5/7): The aiming route is no longer blocked. Deflect the throwing dotted line to the left, aiming at the black ponytail girl selected in Level 11. Release one hit to eliminate her with one ball.
6. Swing Ball to Eliminate Right Wing Brown Twin-Tail Girl (Progress 6/7): Adjust the aiming arc to the far right, locking the curly twin-tail girl defending on the right wing. Release your finger and the red ball turns into a meteor, instantly knocking her out of the field.
7. Launch General Attack with Three Consecutive Heavy Hits on Claire (Progress 7/7): Only the isolated fake heiress Claire is left in the center of the field. Lock the purple alignment line firmly on her and throw the ball continuously. When you hit her to complete the fatal blow, the progress bar fills to 7/7, triggering the victory cutscene where the whole class cheers for Riley!

Pro Tips

• Eliminate time anxiety: Don't frequently wait for the hit team member's exit and fall animation when throwing the ball. As long as the ball just hits the target and the progress bar jumps, the next red ball will immediately refresh in Riley's hand. Immediately pull the line for the next throw, which can greatly save the 60-second time limit in the upper right corner.
• Prohibit blind cross-level direct attack: During Steps 1 and 2, the front row black-haired boy is in a complete blocking volume state. If you forcibly pull the aiming line to Claire behind him, the flying ball will still be intercepted by hard coding, wasting time in vain.

Common Mistakes

• Trying to click the basketball hoop overhead for a slam dunk: This is a handball/dodgeball match level. The blue basketball stand and hoop in the background are hard static layers. Clicking it will not produce any interactive feedback.
• Throwing the ball randomly on the empty ground on both sides of the body: When throwing the ball, if the circular crosshair at the end of the purple dotted line is not accurately attached to the Hitbox (body collision domain) of any team member, the ball will fly directly out of bounds without adding progress.
• Trying to control Riley's left and right movement by swiping the screen: In this level, Riley is in a fixed first-person perspective (holding the ball with both hands). Players cannot control her displacement and can only perform pull-line throwing, the only legal operation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why didn't the progress bar (0/7) increase when I hit the black girl on the right?

Please check if the two boys in the front row are still standing on the field. The game has designed strict spatial front-back layer judgment. If the front row meat shields have not been completely eliminated (i.e., completing the first 4 steps), directly attacking the two wings in the back row will often be automatically confiscated or blocked by the arms extended from the front row.

Can Riley make real friends after winning this level?

Yes! After winning this dodgeball battle, Claire's hypocritical mask is further torn. Maddie, who has been witnessing Riley's struggle in the audience, will be completely healed by Riley and step forward. Riley will officially gain her first true life-and-death buddy since coming to this school!
