Block Out Level 157 Walkthrough
Level 157 stacks two crowded fields around an hourglass neck. Drain the upper edge colors, unwind the green L-shape from the red waist bar, and open the lower field only after the shared junction is clear.

How to Solve Block Out Level 157 — Full Solution
- Send the exposed red group through the right red gate to open the upper-right edge.
- Clear the top cyan strip and left purple column through their matching exits.
- Move the central yellow blocks aside so the green L-shape can turn around the red bar.
- Remove the red horizontal bar through the right gate and leave the neck empty.
- Clear the marked center panel to reveal the packed lower field.
- Route the lower green and cyan pieces outward first while preserving the waist.
- Send the last blue/cyan strip through the lower-right gate, then remove the yellow and purple corner pieces.
Colors in this level:
Red, Purple, Cyan, Green, Yellow, Blue, Orange
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Opening the lower chamber while red still occupies the waist, forcing upper and lower pieces into the same lane.
- Pushing the green L-shape down before the yellow center opens, wedging its corner against the neck wall.
Quick Tips for Block Out Level 157 (quick clues)
- Clear the red waist bar before the lower framed panel opens, or both fields dump into one neck.
- Unhook the green L only after adjacent yellow opens—forcing it down early wedges its corner on the neck wall.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Hourglass board with a dense upper grid, narrow waist, and orange-framed lower chamber. Red gates line the right, purple the left, cyan the top and lower-right, and green gates serve the lower sides. A green L-shape and red horizontal bar converge above the neck.
- Goal
- Clear the upper field and center panel, preserve the waist as a shared route, then drain the revealed lower rows without sending two colors into the neck together.
- Opening
- Take the exposed right red group, top cyan strip, and left purple column before shifting the yellow center pieces.
- Danger Zone
- Leaving the red horizontal bar in the waist when the lower field opens creates opposing traffic and traps the hooked green piece.
- Mechanics
- Two packed fields unlock in sequence and share one narrow hourglass junction.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does Block Out Level 157 jam at the middle?
Upper and lower fields share one hourglass neck. A red waist bar still in place when the lower field opens creates opposing traffic and traps the hooked green piece.
What should free first once the lower field is live?
Exposed green and cyan pieces open the lower-right route. Without them, the final horizontal strip has nowhere to exit through the shared neck.
