Beads Out level guide
Beads Out Level 10 Walkthrough
Beads Out Level 10 is the first board where queue order underneath matters almost as much as the arch itself. Red and cyan stabilize the outlet, yellow and orange bridge the middle, and the buried green-purple pair should stay buried until the arch is thin.
Board Notes
- Layout
- Level 10 is a twin-feeder arch with a tall stepped storage column underneath. Yellow and green descend from the left pipe while blue and yellow descend from the right, and the arch itself mixes red, orange, cyan, purple, blue, and green. The boxes are stacked in a long pit with red and cyan near the top, then blue, yellow, gray, orange, red, green, purple, and another gray reserve farther down.
- Goal
- The main job is to keep the storage column feeding in the right order. The early boxes near the top have to do the opening work before the buried colors can be exposed safely.
- Opening
- Open with red, then cyan, then yellow as the lower arch rotates through the outlet. Orange handles the middle bridge, while the lower green and purple boxes rise only after the queue has already shortened.
- Danger Zone
- The board collapses badly if you fish purple or another buried color out of the pit before the top of the queue has finished its cycle.
- Mechanics
- Level 10 is the first queue-management puzzle. The storage order under the arch is part of the solve, not just spare space for boxes.
Quick Tips for Beads Out Level 10 (spoiler-free)
- On this board, the stack order underneath is puzzle information. Do not treat the lower pit like free storage.
- With 6 colors in play, clear the pair with the fewest blockers first so the board opens up instead of tightening.
- Think in chain clears. The best move is the one that sets up the next two moves, not just the quickest current match.
How to Solve Beads Out Level 10 — Full Solution
- Open with the red box so the first red band on the lower arch can leave before the queue shifts.
- Swap to cyan next and clear the cyan strip that takes over the outlet from the middle of the arch.
- Use yellow when the lower-left and upper-right yellow sections line up through the outlet.
- Bring orange forward for the next bridge segment, then let the top of the queue relax before exposing the buried colors.
- Finish by raising green and then purple from the lower part of the storage column after the outer arch is already thin.
Colors in this level:
Red, Cyan, Yellow, Orange, Green, Purple
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Trying to use a buried bottom color such as purple before the top queue boxes are done.
- Skipping cyan after the opening red clear and forcing yellow too soon.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Beads Out Level 10 harder than the earlier levels?
The queue underneath matters. You have to respect the order the boxes are stacked in the pit as well as the color order on the arch.
Which colors should start Level 10?
Red starts first and cyan follows second, because they control the first two outlet handoffs on the arch.
