Help Riley and Maddie escape the locked room

Level Overview

Welcome to Tricky Story Story 2 Level 16! Riley and Maddie are locked by Claire in the dim sports equipment room. The front double door has been locked. The only hope of escape is the high skylight overhead. However, the two climbing ropes hanging under the window are too high for them to reach. The text prompt at the bottom indicates the core of clearing: escape by building a ladder. This level introduces multi-component counting mode (0/10). You need to collect and combine all 10 stackable and usable sports equipment and debris scattered in the room piece by piece into stairs, steadily pushing the progress bar to 10/10 for a successful great escape!

Step-by-Step Walkthrough

1. Drag Green Trash Can as Base (Progress 1/10): Click the bright green plastic trash can (Trash Can) in the lower right corner of the screen, press and hold it and drag it to the ground directly below the two climbing steel pipes as the stable base of the temporary stairs.
2. Stack Large Box to Increase Height (Progress 2/10): Click the large square box (Large Box) on the right with "EQUIPMENT" printed on it, drag it and stack it heavily on top of the green trash can.
3. Stack Medium Box to Continue Increasing Height (Progress 3/10): Click the medium square box (Medium Box) next to it again and drag it to stack it steadily on top of the large box, further increasing the stair height. Progress bar successfully adds 1.
4. Put Long Bread on Box (Progress 4/10): Notice a packaged long sliced bread (Bread) next to the box pile. Although it is not sports equipment, it is also a stackable hard object. Drag it to the top of the medium box.
5. Move Wooden Long Bench (Progress 5/10): Click the sports locker room wooden bench (Bench) placed horizontally on the left. Press and hold the bench and drag it horizontally to the side of the box and trash can to serve as the first step for Riley to step on to climb up.
6. Put Brown Student Backpack on Chair Back (Progress 6/10): Click the brown student backpack (Backpack) on the floor in the lower left corner. Drag it and throw it in the gap between the wooden bench and the box to fill the void.
7. Lay Blue Roll Yoga Mat (Progress 7/10): A roll of blue-green roll yoga mat (Yoga Mat) is lying at Riley's feet. Click and drag it to the top of the bread or box as the last level of cushioning stepping point.
8. Click Three Orange Marker Cones Against Left Wall (Progress 8/10): Move your view to the far left equipment rack. Click the three orange training marker cones (Traffic Cones) stacked there. Continuously click them quickly and they will automatically fly over and get stuck under the trash can as reinforcement brackets.
9. Click "Champion Runner" Frame Hanging on Wall (Progress 9/10): Click the girl running honor frame (Frame) hanging on the right wall. After clicking, the frame falls off, revealing a protruding brick wooden stake hidden in the wall that can serve as an excellent leverage point.
10. Click Climbing Rope to Unlock Great Escape Cutscene (Progress 10/10): When all the above equipment and debris are stacked and assembled, and the temporary ladder has perfectly reached mid-air (progress bar reaches 9/10), click the two silver vertical climbing ropes/steel pipes (Poles) hanging down. Riley and Maddie will immediately nimbly climb up the skylight along the man-made stairs and ropes, successfully escaping the equipment room. Progress bar fills to 10/10 for perfect clearance!

Pro Tips

• Strict order of trash can and boxes: In the hard coding algorithm, the bottom basic materials have strict gravity collision. You must first place the green trash can, then place large and small boxes (Steps 1-3). If the order is reversed, the boxes will automatically bounce back to their original positions because they cannot land stably, wasting time in the upper right corner.
• Filter invalid pure background interference: The soccer balls filled in the yellow iron frame on the far left, several mops standing on the shelf, and the school flying eagle flag with blue background in the upper left corner are all completely locked static layers. Random clicking does not add any progress.

Common Mistakes

• Directly clicking Riley and Maddie at the opening to make them grab the rope: At this time, the skylight and rope are too high from the ground. If you click them in advance, the characters will only stay in place making helpless waving non-interactive actions, wasting precious 60-second time limit.
• Throwing blue yoga mat or bench outside the window: Yoga mat (Step 7) and bench (Step 5) are indispensable height components for building the ladder. If you don't stack them on the vertical central axis (under the rope), the system cannot verify passage.
• Thinking bread on box is for Riley to eat and fill up: In this level, Riley is in a high anxiety state and does not trigger eating mechanism. Long bread is purely judged as a "heightening building block" in logic. Clicking it alone has no effect.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is the progress bar stuck at 8/10 and still unable to clear after I moved all the boxes and benches over?

This means you missed the hidden interaction items on the wall. Please check whether you clicked off the "Champion Runner frame (Step 9)" on the right wall and clicked off the marker cones (Step 8) in the lower left corner. These two environmental hidden grids are also rigid conditions for gathering 10/10 core points.

What do the "118" stars in the upper right corner represent?

That represents the total number of perfect three stars you obtained in previous plots (such as the previous race and handball selection levels). It is only displayed as an account total asset in the upper right corner of the screen and will not interfere with the equipment room escape countdown in this level.
