Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Tall stepped rectangle with two huge purple-framed upper panels and a compact lower-left colored cluster. The revealed wave adds a tall right-side red/yellow/green/cyan stack and a four-cell green outlined cage near center-right.
- Goal
- Open both upper panels, then circle the second-wave cyan, green, red, yellow, and magenta pieces around the fixed green cage.
- Opening
- Clear the lower-left cyan/blue pieces, move the green L-piece out of the bottom corridor, and remove the magenta strip before feeding either panel.
- Danger Zone
- A long green or cyan bar parked below the green cage blocks the turning square needed by the right-side red/yellow stack.
- Mechanics
- Twin counter lids followed by a larger cage-routing phase around a permanent four-cell obstacle.
