Anticipating threats and planning ahead. Collect coins while avoiding ghosts. Ghosts move before the player each turn, and collisions cost a life. 3 levels in sequence, up to 66 turns in total. Earlier moves and outcomes carry forward, testing learning across levels.

Cooperative planning and learning from experience. Coordinate two robots to push numbered cores onto matching sockets. Pressure plates hold doors open; moving either robot uses one turn. 5 levels in sequence, up to 152 turns in total. Earlier moves and outcomes carry forward, testing learning across levels.

Beam 1.0 501B A23B
Central object placement is fairly close, but the defining mirrored-room structure is missing. The paint colors suggest the required contact order without establishing their different interaction histories. The faint floor oval does not demonstrate valid reflection geometry, so it earns no reflection credit. Rounded volume and glossy paint provide limited material credit despite weak metallic finishes and oversized paint bodies.
LongCat-2.0
Cyan lies on the sphere's facing middle rather than showing its recent interaction near the apex. Separate airborne black and elongated crimson support part of the timing sequence. Small side images and an overlapping lower image provide limited reflection ordering, but recursive room structure, nested imagery and emitter mappings are largely absent. The main sphere is smaller and higher in the frame than prescribed, and the surfaces have a soft, matte appearance.

Beam 1.0 501B A23B
An appealing expression and warm palette support a coherent simple cartoon. The central polishing joke is not legible: the cloth is unresolved and the nose sits away from the fan. Pointed radial plates, uncertain limb attachments and weak ground contact limit construction, while restrained surface detail limits material richness.
LongCat-2.0
Amber slit eyes, a pointed beak, cream feathers and gold-trimmed black clothing establish the secretive owl rogue. The head appears frontal rather than lowered, with much of the face exposed. The centered silhouette is effective, but stiff cloak geometry, shallow facial modeling and extremely dark clothing limit depth and finish. Sparse gold markings suggest the requested circuitry only loosely.

Beam 1.0 501B A23B
The candidate shows a faint warm oval against an almost entirely black field. Minimal placement and smooth tonal variation are visible, but the portrait, anatomy, crossed hands and landscape remain unreadable. The saved comparisons provide no specific evidence supporting a change to the baseline categories.
LongCat-2.0
The centered portrait, slight smile, overlapping hands and distant landscape suggest Mona Lisa, but replication is weak. The face has little volume, the shoulders and torso form a narrow wedge, and the hands are fingerless ovals with unresolved wrists. Broad gray background bands provide limited depth. A bright head rim and pale hands contrast with an almost featureless dark figure.

Beam 1.0 501B A23B
A coherent, cheerful beach illustration fulfills the main subjects with clean shapes and a strong sunset focal point. Its basic geometric construction, ambiguous animal anatomy, shallow depth and schematic lighting limit its accomplishment. Decorative details provide interest without developing intricate forms or convincing physical surfaces.
LongCat-2.0
The sunset, palms, birds and beach animals create a cheerful, readable scene. Clean silhouettes and a vivid sky establish the composition, but construction remains schematic. The right palm appears rooted in open water, shadows have limited connection to the sunset, and the sun’s reflection consists of rigid bands. Small creatures and beach equipment are recognizable but minimally developed.

Beam 1.0 501B A23B
A cheerful, readable illustration with recognizable animals, expressive faces and useful accessories. Simple rounded construction limits complexity, while ambiguous steering attachments and weak hull-to-water contact reduce physical coherence. Lighting and surface effects establish the setting without convincing environmental interaction.
LongCat-2.0
The raccoon is recognizable and expressive, with a clear mask and striped tail. The dog's anatomy is poorly resolved, and the flattened craft lacks convincing steering and seating. Feet extend below the hull, weakening the sense of support. An appealing palette, clean shapes and decorative water effects give the illustration some polish.

Beam 1.0 501B A23B
A cheerful, clearly readable pelican-and-bicycle illustration with clean contours and balanced composition. Simple geometric construction limits artistic complexity, while ambiguous neck and steering overlaps, merged pedal contacts and an incomplete drivetrain weaken physical coherence.
LongCat-2.0
A clearly recognizable pelican cycles through a well-composed coastal sunset. Warm colors, flowing scarf, feather contours and bicycle details give the illustration character. The legs connect to the body, but the farther foot's pedal contact and the wing's handlebar grip remain ambiguous. Clean vector shapes provide polish, with limited material texture and directional shading.
