Block Out Level 22 Walkthrough
Block Out Level 22 is a single giant boss-room puzzle around a purple `17` panel. Dismantle the checker roof first, let the huge boss panel start falling second, and clean up the late blue and pink pieces only after the lid is gone.
Board Notes
- Layout
- A huge framed purple square marked `17` fills nearly the whole board, with a tight black-and-white checker roof above it and a red strip on the upper-right. Lower counters show `19` and `19`, and a black gate sits at the top-left.
- Goal
- Remove the lid above the boss so the `17` panel can finally start shrinking.
- Opening
- The checker roof is the opener. Peel it left to right before worrying about the giant boss value.
- Danger Zone
- Trying to service the `17` panel while the roof is still thick wastes the only useful upper lane.
- Mechanics
- Level 22 is a single-room boss board with a sealed roof that has to come off first.
Quick Tips for Block Out Level 22 (spoiler-free)
- The roof matters more than the boss at the start.
- The right red strip is part of the roof cleanup, not an early finisher.
- 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 22 — Full Solution
- Strip the top checker roof from left to right so the upper blockers stop sealing the chamber.
- Move the right red strip only after the surrounding black blocks have shifted.
- Keep the `17` panel parked while the side counters and roof continue shrinking.
- Once the roof is thin enough, start draining the `17` boss panel.
- Use the newly opened upper lane to bring out the late blue and pink pieces.
- Flatten the remaining cyan columns after the boss value is much lower.
- Finish the room once the boss panel has fully collapsed.
Colors in this level:
Purple, Black, White, Red, Blue, Pink, Cyan
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Working the `17` panel before the roof has opened.
- Leaving the right red strip buried in the roof when the black blocks still need to move.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the first real task in Block Out Level 22?
The checker roof is the first task. The giant `17` panel does not start to open until the lid above it is thinner.
Why does the purple `17` boss feel immovable in Level 22?
Because the top roof is still sealing its chamber. Remove the lid first, then the boss can start dropping.
