Block Out Level 278 Walkthrough
Block Out Level 278 wraps two towers and two lower wings around a fixed six-cell dark-blue island. Empty the left yellow gate first, peel the bridge above the island from both ends, and keep that crossing open until the right tower is drained.

How to Solve Block Out Level 278 — Full Solution
- Send the yellow block at the top of the left tower through the yellow gate.
- Remove the red vertical piece below it to open the left tower's inside wall.
- Clear the upper pink bars from both sides, then move the central green horizontal bar while the bridge is empty.
- Peel the right-tower red, blue, and yellow pieces from the outside edge toward the recessed center.
- Remove the yellow and red bars directly above the dark-blue island without parking either on the bridge.
- Clear the lower-left green and blue rows, then remove the large red block beside the 15 and 18 strips.
- Work the lower-right blue, green, red, and pink groups outward as the 31 strip falls.
- Remove the last long pink and green blocks from the left wing before blue crosses the center.
- Finish the final blue row and let the six dark-blue cells clear once the colored board is empty.
Colors in this level:
Yellow, Red, Pink, Green, Blue
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Parking a long bar above the center island while the opposite tower still contains blocks.
- Moving lower blue traffic into the bridge before the upper red and yellow bars have left.
Quick Tips for Block Out Level 278 (quick clues)
- Treat the band above the island as exclusive transit space until both raised towers are empty.
- Clear lower wings from their frozen edges inward so long blocks do not collect beside the island.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- U-shaped board with a top-left yellow gate, frozen edge strips marked 4/15/18/31, two raised towers, a six-cell dark-blue 3-by-2 center island, and layered red/yellow/pink/green/blue bars.
- Goal
- Clear both towers and lower wings around the center island without blocking the one bridge that connects the left and right halves.
- Opening
- Exit the top-left yellow block, remove the red piece below it, and peel the upper pink and green bands before moving lower blue rows.
- Danger Zone
- A green or pink horizontal bar parked on the bridge above the island seals one tower while the other tower's red/yellow pieces still need to cross.
- Mechanics
- Six fixed dark-blue cells create a central island and disappear only after the surrounding colored board is cleared.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the six dark-blue center cells be used as parking space?
No. They remain fixed as a central island until the late finish, so every colored route must go around them.
What is the key crossing in Level 278?
The narrow horizontal band directly above the six-cell island connects the two raised towers and must stay clear until both are drained.
