Block Out level guide
Block Out Level 116 Walkthrough
Block Out Level 116 wraps perimeter arrows around a central orange-bordered `6` pocket — the arrows are live exits, not decoration. A bottom color-counter tray tracks progress, and the side arrows must open in sequence to avoid trapping the white-bordered purple square in the center-right. Force the purple square through while the bottom counters are still high and the tray seals shut.
Board Notes
- Layout
- Purple-framed packing board with perimeter arrows. Center-lower: orange-bordered purple square marked `6`. Top row: blue `8`, green horizontal cluster, purple `9`. Bottom tray: cyan `12`, paired cyan `10` tiles, purple `7` counters. Left: red left-arrow column. Right: blue right-arrow lane.
- Goal
- The central orange-bordered pocket and bottom color counters must empty before the timer expires. The side arrows are the only clean exits once the middle channel stays open.
- Opening
- Peel the top-left blue `8` and green top cluster first, then slide the red left-arrow column without filling the space around the central `6` pocket.
- Danger Zone
- Around 02:14 the white-bordered purple square in the center-right is highlighted while the bottom counters still read `10`, `8`, and `7`. Forcing the bottom tray too early seals the blue right-arrow exit.
- Mechanics
- Perimeter-arrow packing board with a central numbered pocket and a bottom color-counter tray. Side arrows are live exits.
Quick Tips for Block Out Level 116 (spoiler-free)
- The bottom counter tray is a seal — wait until the center-right purple highlight clears.
- Keep the cyan `12`/`10` pair parked until the middle channel actually widens.
- Think in chain clears. The best move is the one that sets up the next two moves, not just the quickest current match.
How to Solve Block Out Level 116 — Full Solution
- Peel the top-left blue `8` and the green top cluster without touching the central orange-bordered `6` pocket.
- Slide the red left-arrow column down and clear the bottom-left red `11` tile.
- Feed the cyan `12` and paired `10` tiles through the bottom center once the middle channel opens.
- Use the highlighted white-bordered purple square in the center-right to unlock the blue right-arrow exit.
- Close the bottom-tray blue `10`, `8`, and `4` counters before spending the purple `7` pair.
- Finish with the last green 1x1 and the remaining perimeter arrow exits until the 6x6 grid empties.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the central orange-bordered `6` pocket do in Block Out Level 116?
It is the main objective zone. The top blue `8` and green cluster must clear around it before the bottom counters can be spent safely.
Why does the bottom tray stall the run?
It tracks remaining color clears. If the center-right purple square is still highlighted, dropping the final blue counts seals the right-arrow lane.
