Beads Out Level 408 Walkthrough
Level 408 packs a three-turn serpentine pipe between two mystery feeders and a reserve gate that starts at `8`. Let the four preloaded receivers work first, cycle the numbered purple and cyan boxes carefully, and save the gated brown-purple-green row for the final coil.

How to Solve Beads Out Level 408 — Full Solution
- Let the four starting receivers collect the first blue/cyan, green, and red lower-serpent bands until a slot clears.
- Tap the purple numbered receiver for the long purple run, then use cyan and orange for the next inner-lane bands.
- Alternate yellow, red, and pink from the open reserve, waiting for each receiver to leave before adding another numbered cyan/blue box.
- After the right mystery strip reveals, route green, orange, and red from the upper feeder while the left counter falls toward `4`.
- Cycle green, cyan, purple, yellow, and pink until the final counter counts expose the bottom brown and green receivers.
- Use the unlocked brown, purple, green, plus the last pink and white receivers to empty the inner coil and trigger success.
Colors in this level:

Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Trying to use a bottom-row brown or green receiver before the counter has released it.
- Parking both right-column colors next to an unfinished long-run numbered box.
Quick Tips for Beads Out Level 408 (quick clues)
- Do not replace the four starting receivers until one has actually completed.
- Use the long purple numbered receiver before stacking the short red and pink boxes beside it.
- Treat the brown-purple-green bottom row as a late unlock, not part of the opening reserve.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Two long arms with black `?` strips feed a three-lane serpentine coil. Four receivers start beneath the outlet, while a counter marked `8` blocks brown, purple, and green boxes along the bottom of the reserve.
- Goal
- Drain the lower serpent with the starting receivers, reduce the numbered boxes, and lower the `8` counter until the closing receivers unlock.
- Opening
- Let the preloaded blue/cyan, green, and red receivers catch their first bands, then add the purple numbered box only after a slot opens.
- Danger Zone
- Loading both red and pale pink from the right column during a long purple or olive run can leave no slot for the next orange-yellow handoff.
- Mechanics
- A falling `8` counter gates the bottom receiver row, while two mystery strips conceal colors on the upper feeder arms.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the 8 counter unlock in Level 408?
It releases the bottom reserve row containing the late brown, purple, and green receivers used near the end of the coil.
Should I swap out the four starting boxes immediately?
No. Let them collect the first lower-serpent bands and wait for a receiver to complete before adding purple or orange.
