How to Solve Beads Out Level 394 — Full Solution

  1. Select purple for the first hourglass band, then add pink and brown from the open top row.
  2. Add dark green when its band approaches; let each completed opening box leave before advancing lower in the stacked columns.
  3. Select olive from the open left column; after it fills and exits, move peach into that slot.
  4. Fill red from the upper right column and let it leave, exposing the next box above the first padlock.
  5. Complete cyan and white as their open bands reach the outlet, letting each box leave before starting the three padlock pairs.
  6. Fill blue and let it leave to release the padlocked red box; finish that red immediately in the freed slot.
  7. Complete gray to release yellow, then move the newly freed yellow into the active row and let it finish.
  8. Fill the lower green box to release orange; finish that orange, then take cream only after a slot opens.
  9. Finish green and navy, then clear gray, yellow, and orange in the order their remaining bands reach the outlet.

Board notes 5 details
Layout
Two upper arms cross through a narrow hourglass neck and spread around a broad lower loop with one outlet and four empty active slots. Purple, pink, brown, and dark green are available near the top of three reserve columns containing olive, peach, red, cyan, white, yellow, orange, blue, cream, and several padlocked cells.
Goal
Drain the hourglass while clearing each reserve column from top to bottom so every padlocked box is released before it is needed.
Opening
Select purple first, pink second, and brown third; add dark green when its band reaches the hourglass outlet.
Danger Zone
Visible lower yellow, orange, cream, and red boxes can be selected before the lock above them clears, occupying a slot for several rotations.
Mechanics
Hard hourglass route, four active slots, stacked padlocks, and swap-arrow boxes.
