How to Solve Block Out Level 212 — Full Solution
- Clear the yellow pieces directly beneath the 10-count top chamber to begin lowering its counter.
- Alternate the exposed blue, red, and green groups through their side exits so the two-cell waist never remains occupied.
- Finish the small left-center 3 chamber, then continue feeding the top chamber until its counter reaches zero.
- After the lid retracts, remove the upper red and green bands before moving the bulky yellow L shapes into the waist.
- Clear the loose blue pieces through the right blue exit, followed by the lower red framed square through the left red exit.
- Move the green-framed red square up to the green exit only after the center opens, then send the remaining yellow L shapes and final single square through the yellow exit.
Colors in this level:
Yellow, Red, Green, Blue
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Parking a framed red-green square on the two-cell waist and cutting the hourglass into two disconnected pockets.
- Moving a yellow L into the bridge before the upper red and green bands have escaped.
Quick Tips for Block Out Level 212 (quick clues)
- Use the blue outline cells only for transit; never leave a framed square across them.
- Clear the upper red and green bands before bringing either yellow L shape into the waist.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Hourglass-shaped board. Long framed 10 chamber across the top; smaller framed 3 chamber left of center; framed red and green squares in the two lower pockets; yellow, red, blue, and green blocks packed around a narrow two-cell waist; colored exits on the top and side rails.
- Goal
- Reduce the 10 lid and 3 chamber to zero, clear the revealed upper bands, then extract the framed lower squares and late yellow L shapes through the shared waist.
- Opening
- Remove the yellow pieces under the long chamber, then alternate exposed blue, red, and green groups through their side exits so the waist stays open.
- Danger Zone
- Two blue outline cells form the only bridge between the upper and lower pockets. Parking a large yellow L or framed square there strands the opposite half.
- Mechanics
- Hourglass geometry with a 10-count lid chamber, a separate 3 chamber, two framed color squares, and a two-cell central bridge.
Frequently Asked Questions
What should I clear first in Block Out Level 212?
Start with the yellow pieces under the 10-count lid, then alternate blue, red, and green exits to keep the narrow waist usable.
How do I avoid blocking the hourglass bridge?
Do not park either framed square or a yellow L on the two blue outline cells; cross them only when the destination side is already open.
