Game Is Hard Level 68 Walkthrough: Tap the X

Level 68 shows a purple dot in a grid maze, a large X at the top, and the instruction "come to x." The natural move is to steer the dot toward the X with the on-screen arrows — but the arrows do nothing. The answer is literal: tap the X itself.

⚡ Quick Answer

Forget the arrows. Tap the X block directly and the level resolves — the dot doesn't need to move to it at all.

Game Is Hard Level 68 Breakdown

What You See

A purple grid maze holds a small purple dot near the bottom-left, with directional arrows that look like controls. A large X shape sits at the top of the maze, and "come to x" states the goal.

The arrows are the trap. They imply you should navigate the dot to the X, but pressing them does nothing. The X itself is the actual button.

Why You're Stuck

I mashed every directional arrow trying to walk the dot to the X, and the dot stayed frozen. I assumed the controls were broken or that I was missing a sequence.

Then I tapped the X directly out of frustration — and it worked. The level never wanted me to move the dot at all; it wanted me to touch the target, not reach it.

The Answer

Tap the X block itself. You don't need to move the purple dot or use the arrows — touching the X is the entire solution, and the level completes immediately.

How to Beat It

Work through it one move at a time.

  1. Step 1: Ignore the arrows. The directional arrows are decoys that do nothing. Don't waste taps trying to steer the dot.
  2. Step 2: Tap the X. Touch the large X shape at the top of the maze directly.
  3. Step 3: Done. The level registers the tap on the X and resolves — no movement required.

Troubleshooting

  • The arrows won't move the dot: they never will. This isn't a navigation level — the X is the button, not the destination.
  • I tapped the X but it didn't clear: make sure you're tapping the large X block itself, not the maze around it. A direct tap on the X is what triggers the win.
  • The dot is in the wrong spot: the dot's position is irrelevant. The level only cares that you touch the X.

Why It Works

The level's trap is the arrows. They create a false frame — a maze with a navigable character and a destination — so you pour effort into steering when the answer is a single tap on the target. "Come to x" reads as a movement command, but the game means it literally: bring your finger to the X. It's a reminder that in Game Is Hard, the stated goal object is often the control itself, not something to be reached.

The Rule to Carry Forward

When a level shows navigation controls that don't respond, try tapping the goal object directly. The destination in the prompt is often the button you're actually meant to press.

  • Dead controls are a sign the object itself is interactive.
  • Tap the named target — 'x' — rather than trying to reach it.
  • The character's position may be irrelevant; read the prompt literally.
Pro tip:

The arrows are a decoy. Touch the X directly and skip the maze entirely — that's the whole level.

Common mistake:

Using the arrows to walk the dot toward the X. The X is the button; tap it directly and the level clears.
