At first glance, this looks like a simple water-flow puzzle.
A bottle is pouring liquid into a maze of pipes, and six glasses β A, B, C, D, E, and F β are waiting below.
Your job seems easy:
π Which glass will fill first?
Most people simply follow the water from the top and choose the glass that appears to have the shortest or most direct path.
But thereβs a catchβ¦ π
π Some of the pipes are blocked!
So donβt just follow the path that looks obvious. Trace the pipes carefully and check every junction.
Start from the bottle at the top and follow each route:
β The pipes leading toward A and B are blocked.
β The routes toward E and F are also blocked.
β The pipe leading to D has a blockage along the way.
That leaves just one clear routeβ¦
