Block Out Level 26 Walkthrough

hard 7 colors

Block Out Level 26 is a bridge-and-boss board. Drain the upper chamber into the `18` throat first, lower the bridge second, and only then let the huge lower `21` boss start collapsing.

Board Notes

Layout
A crowded upper chamber of pink, green, white, black, red, and yellow blocks sits above a narrow throat marked `18`, which leads to a giant lower boss panel marked `21`.
Goal
Open the bridge so the upper room can finally reach the lower boss chamber.
Opening
The upper chamber and the `18` throat matter more than the `21` boss at the start.
Danger Zone
Working on the `21` panel early wastes the narrow bridge that the upper room still needs.
Mechanics
Level 26 is a stacked boss puzzle where the bridge is the true lock.

Quick Tips for Block Out Level 26 (spoiler-free)

  • The `18` throat opens the level.
  • The lower `21` panel is a second-phase target.
  • 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 26 — Full Solution

  1. Feed the upper chamber into the central `18` throat and start lowering its count.
  2. Keep shaving the side counters in the top room while the lower `21` panel stays untouched.
  3. Use the white-and-black blockers in the top room to keep the bridge from refilling.
  4. Once the `18` lane is much lower, open the passage into the lower chamber.
  5. Start shrinking the `21` boss only after the bridge is no longer crowded.
  6. Rotate the late purple and red pieces once the bottom room has actual space.
  7. Finish with the last upper leftovers after the lower boss has already fallen.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Trying to work the lower boss before the bridge has opened.
  • Letting the upper chamber refill the `18` throat after it has already started dropping.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What opens Block Out Level 26?

    The central `18` bridge opens it. The lower `21` boss does not really matter until that throat is much lower.

  • When should the `21` boss move in Level 26?

    Only after the top chamber has drained enough to stop clogging the bridge.
