Tricky Story Level 56 Walkthroughs & Guide

Tricky Story Level 56 — Help Ethan and Anna take care of all babies. Guide Overview

I needed a couple of tries before I wrapped my head around this newborn babysitting chaos. Tricky Story Level 56 throws you into a hospital room with Ethan and Anna, plus a dozen babies that need attention. My first attempt missed the order completely — I handed a baby to Ethan before the cat was even in play. The level forces you to multitask: feeding, calling for help, even bribing a shipping guy. Here’s how I cracked it without losing my mind.

Pattern Overview

New parents need help from everyone around them — even a painted cat and a stork.

The Emotional Sequence

• Cat Paw First: The white cat on the floor can watch one baby while you scramble for other helpers
• Stork Escape Route: Swiping the window open and using the wanted poster calls the stork — a literal getaway for one newborn
• Ethan’s Double Duty: Ethan takes two babies, one after the other, because he’s the dad and he’s ready
• Anna’s Recovery Meal: Ordering food via Ethan’s phone revives Anna so she can hold a baby again
• TV Babysitter: Turning on the TV reveals a girl who accepts a baby — weird, but it works
• Spider Sitter: Yes, the spider on the wall will take a baby. Don’t question the logic
• Money Bribe for Nanny: Ethan’s pocket cash hires a shipper who then calls a nanny — she takes both remaining babies
• Painting Cat’s Job: The cat in the painting somehow holds a baby too
• Crib Finale: The very last baby goes into the crib, closing the level

Why This Level Feels Tricky + The Key Insight

Why Tricky: The biggest trap is thinking you can hand babies to Ethan and Anna immediately. Tricky Story Level 56 hides its helpers — the white cat is easy to miss because it blends into the floor, and you have to swipe the window open before the stork appears. Another weird moment: you need to tap Ethan’s phone to order food for Anna before she stops complaining about being tired. If you skip that, she refuses the baby.

My “Aha!” Moment: I assumed I could just give all babies to the parents — that’s the normal way, right? So I dragged a baby to Ethan first, and nothing happened. Then I tried handing one to Anna while she was still exhausted, and she just groaned. The trigger happened when I noticed the white cat sitting on the floor — Anna’s inner monologue says “Lend me a paw, cat!” — and suddenly I understood. Tricky Story Level 56 isn’t about parent-only care; it’s about outsourcing every baby to any available character, from a stork to a spider to a painting. After that realization, I systematically tested every interactive object in the room.

Step 1. Foundation Recovery — Cat Cuddle

Drag the first baby onto the white cat on the floor. Tricky Story Level 56 opens with Anna exhausted and Ethan panicking, so you need to offload the first newborn immediately. The cat sits still until you place the baby — then it starts purring, freeing your hands for the next step. Anna’s thought: “Lend me a paw, cat!” confirms this is the right opener.

Step 2. Wanted Poster Getaway

Swipe the window open, then drag the wanted poster onto the criminal (the guy in the wanted portrait). Wait for the stork to appear, then give the baby to it. Tricky Story Level 56 forces you to use the poster as a distraction — the criminal disappears, and the stork swoops in to take one baby away. Anna’s inner voice says “Oh no, I’ve been discovered! Time to run” — so the criminal gets scared, and you send a baby with the stork.

Step 3. Ethan’s First Baby

Drag the next baby to Ethan. He’s standing by the bed, ready to be a dad. Tricky Story Level 56 shows him saying “I will become the best father in the world!” after he takes the baby. This step clears one newborn from the board, giving you confidence to move forward. Don’t give him two at once — he can only hold one at a time.

Step 4. Ethan’s Second Baby

Drag the second baby to Ethan. He already has one, but he’ll take another. The screen shifts slightly when he holds two — it’s a cute animation. Anna’s thought: “Help me watch the baby, I’ll feed you later!” applies here because Ethan is now fully occupied with two babies, leaving you to focus on Anna’s recovery.

Step 5. Food Delivery for Anna

Tap Ethan’s phone (it’s on the nightstand), order food, and give it to Anna. She’s lying in bed, exhausted. After she eats, she says “I feel less tired, I will take care of one baby!” — her mood improves. Now hand a baby to her. Tricky Story Level 56 locks this step behind the food order; without it, Anna refuses any baby. The phone tap also clears the food icon from the screen.

Step 6. TV Babysitter

Tap the TV to turn it on, then give a baby to the girl on the screen. She appears in a talk show or something — she’ll hold the baby. Anna’s inner monologue says “Thank you for using the service!” which is her way of accepting this bizarre solution. The TV must be open before the baby can be dragged there; otherwise the screen is blank.

Step 7. Spider Sitter

Give a baby to the spider on the wall. Yes, a spider. Tricky Story Level 56 includes this absurd helper — Anna thinks “This is not my job, is it?” when the spider takes the baby. The spider is easy to overlook because it’s small and brown. Just drag the baby upward toward the corner where the web is visible. The baby disappears into the web, and the spider seems to cuddle it.

Step 8. Money Bribe for Nanny

Take the money from Ethan’s pocket (tap his pants pocket), then give it to the shipper (the delivery guy who appears near the door). Once he takes the money, he calls a nanny — a woman with a uniform appears. Now give both remaining babies (except the one for the last steps) to the nanny. She can hold two at once. Anna’s thought: “Hello, baby-sitting service is here!” confirms the nanny is legitimate.

Step 9. Painting Cat’s Baby

Give a baby to the cat in the painting on the wall. Tricky Story Level 56 hides this helper in plain sight — the painting shows a cat sitting on a windowsill. Drag a baby onto the painting, and the cat’s mouth opens to receive it. Anna’s inner monologue says “I’m just a cat in a painting” — self-aware humor from the game. This step leaves exactly one baby on the board if you count correctly.

Step 10. Crib Finale

Put the very last baby in the crib. The crib is next to the bed — it’s a small wooden cradle. Drag the baby onto it, and the level completes. This is the normal solution that you probably wanted to do first, but Tricky Story Level 56 makes you save it for last. The crib only accepts the final baby; earlier attempts will reject the baby because the game requires all other helpers used first.

The Logic Behind It

Tricky Story Level 56 is solved by mentally categorizing every character — each one can hold exactly one newborn (except Ethan who takes two, and the nanny who takes two). You start with non-human helpers, move to parents, then use the phone to unlock Anna, then exhaust all special characters before the crib.

Final Scene Description

When I finished, I watched Ethan and Anna sit on the bed, surrounded by calm babies sleeping everywhere. The white cat was curled up with one, the spider had a baby in its web, and the painted cat looked smug from its frame. Tricky Story Level 56 ends with a peaceful nursery feel — Anna whispers “Thank you” as the screen fades to black.
