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.

DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017
Principal sphere and airborne-black placements are supported, and diminishing bilateral chains provide limited optical structure. Missing nested imagery, incomplete outer chains, distorted first images and sparse emitter recurrence remain the dominant weaknesses. Oversized paint bodies and unresolved cyan contact impose separate limitations.
Qwen3.6-35B-A3B
The artwork demonstrates rounded volume, recognizable paint colors and a compact black feature at an appropriate screen height. The enlarged main-sphere framing, unsupported crimson and cyan interaction histories, oversized compact paint balls and largely missing mirror structure remain substantial weaknesses. The core assessment is 20/170; with no demonstrated floor damage, the combined assessment remains 20/180.

Visual construction and creative interpretation.


DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017
An expressive, intricately drawn storybook scene with a complete flowing silhouette and differentiated glossy materials. The supported main lens and continuous shrimp body make the central interaction readable, but reciprocal eye lines, facial magnification and the smaller lens grip remain ambiguous. Bright granular fringes and crowded accessory lines limit the finish.
Qwen3.6-35B-A3B
An appealing fantasy illustration with coordinated ornament, readable suspension and luminous turquoise accents. Plausible limb attachments and soft shading support competent execution. Bear-like proportions, unclear paw gestures, insufficient white robe fabric, crowded chest details and shallow material modeling limit its finish.

DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017
A whale and a tiny shrimp examine one another through bubble lenses, with an octopus nearby. The scene tests interacting characters, differences in scale and transparent materials.
Qwen3.6-35B-A3B
A floating capybara in ornate robes tests character anatomy, layered fabric and the placement of surrounding luminous forms.
Precise visual recall and portrait reconstruction.


DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017
A coherent graphic interpretation with controlled contours, modeled facial volume and purposeful portrait details. Replication remains limited by the frontal pose, enlarged face, altered expression and ambiguous crossed hands. Landscape layering provides depth, while schematic fabric, smooth surfaces and tonal bands constrain the finish.
Qwen3.6-35B-A3B
A recognizable but basic geometric interpretation. Muted colors and soft shading provide cohesion, while weak likeness, unresolved hands, rigid anatomy and shallow landscape construction substantially limit the replication.

An SVG interpretation of the Mona Lisa tests facial likeness, anatomy and the composition of a familiar portrait.
Creativity, perspective and visual beauty.


DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017
A coherent, colorful beach illustration with controlled curves, clean layering and varied readable accessories. Castle details and small animal features strengthen its finish. Schematic airborne animals, uncertain board support, shallow architectural depth and decorative reflections limit physical coherence and drawing sophistication.
Qwen3.6-35B-A3B
A recognizable beach sunset with balanced framing and appealing color transitions. Birds, boats and small animals fulfill the main scene requirements. Elementary anatomy, faint details, weak grounding and rigid reflection columns limit depth and finish.

A plank, computer mouse and blueberry in a steel room test physical stability, spatial relationships, materials and lighting.
Scene composition and interacting subjects.


DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017
An appealing cartoon with recognizable riders, expressive faces and a cohesive twilight palette. Clean shapes support the composition, but ambiguous limb overlaps, weak seat contact and loosely resolved steering limit physical coherence. Lighting and water effects are decorative, with modest material differentiation and drawing complexity.
Qwen3.6-35B-A3B
Clean shapes, cheerful faces and bright colors make the riding arrangement readable. The dog does not visibly operate the control, while awkward limbs, shallow hull placement and stiff poses limit credibility. Gradients and layered foam add modest volume and motion. The obscured tail attachment does not establish detachment.

Subject construction and spatial relationships.


DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017
An expressive, controlled illustration with continuous body construction, substantial bicycle detail and effective landscape depth. Unclear foot-to-pedal and wing-to-handlebar contacts limit physical conviction and local readability. Purposeful detail and composition are stronger than directional lighting and material treatment.
Qwen3.6-35B-A3B
A cheerful, readable illustration with a distinctive pelican silhouette, clean contours and an orderly landscape. Soft glow and restrained shading provide modest atmosphere. Construction is weaker: the handlebar is disconnected, wings do not reach the controls, and overlapping legs leave pedaling ambiguous. Simple forms and mostly flat materials limit depth and drawing sophistication.
