Beads Out Level 22 Walkthrough
Beads Out Level 22 is an hourglass board with a blocker column on the right side of the reserve pit. Yellow and green should open the waist, brown and red carry the middle, and the darker blocker-side colors only work after the funnel is lighter.
Board Notes
- Layout
- The board is an hourglass-shaped loop with yellow, green, brown, red, pink, blue, and purple around the frame. The reserve pit below contains a vertical blocker column on the right that pins several darker boxes behind a narrow access lane.
- Goal
- The real target is the hourglass waist under the outlet. The opening colors need to keep that funnel open before the blocker-side reserve is disturbed.
- Opening
- Start with yellow and green, then use brown and red while the waist is still crowded. Purple and dark blue are later because they belong to the blocker-side finish.
- Danger Zone
- The right blocker column makes the reserve look more open than it actually is.
- Mechanics
- Level 22 is the first hourglass funnel puzzle, so the waist under the outlet decides the whole solve.
Quick Tips for Beads Out Level 22 (spoiler-free)
- Pick the color that keeps the waist open, not the one with the biggest band elsewhere.
- 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 22 — Full Solution
- Start with yellow and clear the first lower-waist segment reaching the outlet.
- Swap to green so the funnel keeps moving instead of stacking both halves on the same color.
- Bring brown and then red through the middle while the blocker-side pit remains untouched.
- Hold the darker right-side boxes until the hourglass waist is much lighter.
- Finish with purple, blue, and the pale cleanup colors after the blocker column stops pinning the right side.
Colors in this level:
Yellow, Green, Brown, Red, Purple, Blue
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Opening the blocker side before the waist has loosened up.
- Ignoring green after yellow and forcing a later color too soon.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Beads Out Level 22 tricky?
Both halves of the hourglass feed one narrow waist, and the right reserve is partially pinned by blockers.
Why should purple wait in Level 22?
Purple lives on the blocker side and is much safer after the waist is already under control.
