Beads Out level guide
Beads Out Level 12 Walkthrough
Beads Out Level 12 mixes an upper tray with a lower spiral pocket. Let the upper tray open the rounded square first, then unwind the lower pocket after the main loop is already under control.
Board Notes
- Layout
- The board is a rounded square loop below two angled feeder pipes, with orange and pink on the left feeder and yellow plus cyan on the right. The storage is split between a shallow upper tray and a lower spiral pocket holding yellow, blue, orange, and purple.
- Goal
- The key target is the upper tray. The top boxes must cycle through the outlet before the lower spiral is opened, or the pocket becomes stranded.
- Opening
- Green and orange take the first outlet turns, then purple and red bridge the middle while the upper tray stays active. Yellow and blue are best used after the lower spiral finally opens.
- Danger Zone
- The lower spiral is the trap. Pulling from it too early blocks the cleaner upper-tray rotation.
- Mechanics
- Level 12 is the first true spiral-pocket board. The lower reserve must be opened in sequence instead of being treated like a flat row.
Quick Tips for Beads Out Level 12 (spoiler-free)
- If the upper tray still has multiple live colors, it is usually too early to spend the lower pocket.
- With 7 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 12 — Full Solution
- Start with green and clear the first lower section that reaches the outlet from the right side of the loop.
- Swap to orange next so the left feeder and nearby orange band can leave together.
- Use purple and then red through the middle while the upper tray is still feeding the outlet.
- Open the lower spiral with yellow once the upper tray has thinned and the outlet begins taking the pocket colors.
- Finish with blue and cyan after the spiral has reduced to its last two short tails.
Colors in this level:
Green, Orange, Purple, Red, Yellow, Blue, Cyan
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Pulling the lower spiral open while the upper tray still holds several active colors.
- Skipping purple in the middle and forcing yellow too early.
Frequently Asked Questions

The lower spiral pocket cannot be opened immediately. The upper tray has to do the early work first.
When should yellow be used in Level 12?
Yellow is stronger after the upper tray has thinned and the lower spiral starts feeding into the outlet.
