How to Solve Beads Out Level 490 — Full Solution
- Keep purple 0% and green 0% preloaded, then add pink to slot 3 and red to slot 4 for the opening row.
- After an opening receiver leaves, use the reopened slot for cyan; bring in blue only after another earlier receiver departs, with the first qualifying completion changing right 2 to 1.
- Complete the next match to clear right 1 and move the right-side box onto the vertical track.
- Process that moved box, then follow the next right-track box shifted into its place.
- Continue with orange, pink, dark green, and navy until the right queue thins.
- Use successive completions to change the left counter from 5 to 4 to 3.
- Follow each released box as it moves across the persistent horizontal track.
- Continue left 3 to 2 to 1 to clear, processing moved white, gray, blue, and yellow boxes.
- Alternate the remaining boxes from both tracks with mystery feeder colors.
- Finish the last yellow, green, white, and navy bands until `Congrats` appears.

Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Mystery feeders enter a teardrop. Purple and green preload two slots above a left 5 counter, right 2 counter, and fixed vertical and horizontal chevron tracks.
- Goal
- Clear the right counter, process its moved queue, then clear the left counter and bottom-track boxes.
- Opening
- Keep purple and green loaded, put pink into slot 3 and red into slot 4, then wait for departures before bringing cyan and blue into reopened slots.
- Danger Zone
- The numbers are counters rather than locks, and the chevron graphics remain while boxes move; early yellow or white can block a shifted box.
- Mechanics
- Right 2 counts to clear and releases the vertical queue; left 5 later counts through 4, 3, 2, 1 to clear and releases the bottom queue.
