1 - Drill Baby Drill!

Logic:

Analyse the Python file:

  • California (length 10)

  • Ohio (length 4)

  • Death Valley (length 12)

  • Mexico (length 6)

The original DrillBabyDrill.py file had five levels. The one we haven't seen yet is 'The Grand Canyon'.

The Golden Rule 🎯

The secret to beating every level is simple: the safe place to drill is at the x-coordinate equal to the length of the level's name.

You need to move your baby left or right until the Loc: number in the top-right corner matches the number of characters (including spaces) in the level's name.


## Level 1: California

  1. The level name is 'California'.

  2. Count the characters: C-a-l-i-f-o-r-n-i-a = 10 characters.

  3. Your Goal: Move the baby until the display reads Loc: 10.

  4. Once there, press the down arrow key to drill all the way to the bottom to find the bear. 🐻


## Level 2: Ohio

  1. The level name is 'Ohio'.

  2. Count the characters: O-h-i-o = 4 characters.

  3. Your Goal: Move the baby until the display reads Loc: 4.

  4. Drill straight down to win.


## Level 3: Death Valley

  1. The level name is 'Death Valley'.

  2. Count the characters, including the space: D-e-a-t-h- -V-a-l-l-e-y = 12 characters.

  3. Your Goal: Move the baby until the display reads Loc: 12.

  4. Drill straight down to win.


## Level 4: Mexico

  1. The level name is 'Mexico'.

  2. Count the characters: M-e-x-i-c-o = 6 characters.

  3. Your Goal: Move the baby until the display reads Loc: 6.

  4. Drill straight down to win.


## The Final Level

You still need to find the fifth and final level. The same rule will apply. When you see the level's name appear:

  1. Carefully count its characters.

  2. Move to that Loc: number.

  3. Drill down to find the last bear and get the flag!
