How to Solve Block Out Level 422 — Full Solution
- Clear the upper-right red row and yellow strip through their matching gates, then remove the green group exposed behind them.
- Take the reachable upper blue and cyan rows while keeping the central green mass away from the shutter lane.
- Remove the left yellow/red stacks and remaining top groups as the shutter falls through 9, 5, and 2.
- Finish the last upper blue, green, red, and yellow pieces to retract the 13-count shutter.
- Clear the revealed lower-left red and green rows, followed by the outside yellow and cyan bars along the floor.
- Route the large lower cyan and purple groups out before they occupy the lanes around the gray center marker.
- Move the outlined green vertical pair and smaller purple connected piece once the lower-right pocket is empty.
- Send the long upper blue rows and red L out, preserving the center for the two hooked finishing shapes.
- Route the outlined yellow/cyan hook through the upper-right route, then slide the final blue L along the floor to the right exit.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Dropping the central upper green mass onto the shutter and losing access to the exposed right-side exits.

Quick Tips for Block Out Level 422 (quick clues)
- Use the exposed right-side gates before disturbing the central green mass above the shutter.
- Clear the lower perimeter first; the connected hook needs the entire middle lane.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Long blue, green, yellow, cyan, and red groups fill the upper half above an orange-outlined purple shutter marked 13. The lower reveal adds more large groups, outlined connected shapes, and a fixed gray center square.
- Goal
- Count the 13 shutter down with the upper colors, clear the lower perimeter, and route both hooked finishing shapes around the center obstacle before the 1:20 timer ends.
- Opening
- Remove the upper-right red row and yellow strip, then take the adjacent green, blue, and cyan groups from the newly opened edge.
- Danger Zone
- A long purple or cyan piece left across center blocks the outlined yellow/cyan hook, and the fixed gray square leaves no alternate turning cell.
- Mechanics
- A 13-count full-width shutter reveals a second board containing outlined connected pieces and a persistent center obstacle.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you open the 13-count shutter in Block Out Level 422?
Work inward from the upper-right red, yellow, green, blue, and cyan groups, then finish the left stacks as the counter reaches zero.
Why save the hooked connected pieces for late in the level?
Their full outlines must turn around a fixed gray center square, so the lower perimeter and long crossing bars need to be gone first.
