Beads Out Level 278 Walkthrough
Level 278 routes two feeders through a four-armed cross above a dense orange blocker grid with upper 6 cells, lower 8 cells, and side displays marked 200. Start orange-yellow, follow gray and brown from the next arms, and reduce the grid only in sync with the bottom outlet.

How to Solve Beads Out Level 278 — Full Solution
- Send orange, then yellow for the opening bottom-arm groups.
- Use purple and mint for the next cross rotation, then gray as the right-side band enters the bottom stem.
- Complete that wave to move the upper cells from 6 to 4, the lower cells from 8 to 6, and the side counters from 200 toward 150.
- Take brown, cream, and green from the exposed reserve only as their bands reach the stem.
- Use red and olive through the next arm rotation while the side counters reach 50.
- Match cyan and pink when the lower cells show 3, preserving one slot for the next opened side box.
- Clear the colors uncovered under the upper 1 cells before selecting from both lower rows.
- Use white and orange as the final side-counter releases reach the outlet.
- Finish green, purple, and the remaining cream tail once all numbered gates are gone.
Colors in this level:
Orange, Yellow, Gray, Brown, Purple, Mint, Cream, Green, Red, Olive, Cyan, Pink, White
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Selecting a color from the opposite cross arm too early.
- Loading multiple boxes exposed by different numbered columns at once.
Quick Tips for Beads Out Level 278 (quick clues)
- Track upper 6 cells, lower 8 cells, and side 200 counters separately.
- Choose from the arm entering the bottom stem, not the opposite arm.
- Keep a slot free when the upper cells reach 1 and expose replacements.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Two tall feeders enter a four-armed cross loop with one outlet below the bottom arm. Three orange blocker columns begin with 6 across the upper band and 8 across the lower band, flanked by 200 displays.
- Goal
- Follow the four-arm circulation while reducing the numbered orange grid and both side displays until the lower reserve opens.
- Opening
- Use orange and yellow for the first bottom-arm groups, then gray and brown for the right and upper arms.
- Danger Zone
- A color chosen from the opposite cross arm remains parked across several turns and can leave no receiver slot for the next bottom-arm band.
- Mechanics
- Three upper cells move 6 to 4 to 1, six lower cells move 8 to 6 to 3, and the two side counters fall from 200 through 150 and 50 as separate synchronized gates.
Frequently Asked Questions
How should I read the cross in Level 278?
Follow the colored band entering the bottom stem; bands on the other three arms are still later in the cycle.
Do the 6, 8, and 200 values represent one counter?
No. The upper 6 cells, lower 8 cells, and two side 200 displays visibly advance through different value sequences.
