Beads Out Level 317 Walkthrough

How to Solve Beads Out Level 317 — Full Solution
- Keep the preloaded orange, red, navy, and brown row unchanged until orange completes at the lower arc.
- Place pink into the slot orange releases.
- Wait for brown and navy to complete, then use their two spaces for dark green and cream.
- Complete the first long capacity receivers; add yellow and then cyan only when their feeder bands become visible.
- Finish the gated receiver that changes the lower counter from `5` to `4` and exposes the first edge box beside the chevrons.
- Match that edge box to move `4` to `3`, waiting for it to leave before selecting from the uncovered row.
- Use gray and the next revealed receiver to move `3` to `2` and retract another chevron strip.
- Complete the final gated fill to move `2` to `1`, then clear the released pink, green, yellow, and dark boxes in feeder order.
Colors in this level:
Orange, Red, Navy, Brown, Pink, Green, Cream, Yellow, Cyan, Gray
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Parking cyan and gray before their feeder bands approach.
- Treating the visible capacity values as a move limit instead of fill progress.
Quick Tips for Beads Out Level 317 (quick clues)
- Leave orange, red, navy, and brown preloaded until orange completes; pink belongs in orange's released slot.
- Add dark green and cream only after brown and navy leave the active row.
- At each `5` to `1` gate change, complete the newly exposed edge box before selecting from the next uncovered row.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Two tall feeders enter a low semicircular loop with a centered outlet. Orange, red, navy, and brown form the first reserve row. Pink, dark green, cream, yellow, cyan, and gray sit around large values including `750`, `550`, `400`, and `200`; a lower chevron chamber is controlled by a gate that starts at `5`.
- Goal
- Alternate between the feeder arms, reduce the capacity values, and lower the gate through `3`, `2`, and `1` to release the bottom cluster.
- Opening
- Orange, red, navy, and brown are already preloaded across all four active slots. Orange completes first; use its freed slot for pink, then replace brown and navy only after they leave.
- Danger Zone
- Cyan and gray are visible before their feeder bands arrive. Parking both beside brown and dark green fills the active row during the long capacity-box phase.
- Mechanics
- Large capacity values descend as matching beads fill their boxes, while a numbered gate stages a chevron-covered reserve.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do the 750 and 550 values mean in Level 317?
They are box fill values that decrease as matching beads are collected, not a level move counter.
When does the bottom chamber open?
It opens in stages as matched fills lower the numbered gate from 5 toward 1.
