How to Solve Block Out Level 478 — Full Solution
- Send the exposed blue block through the left blue gate, then clear the adjacent red block and next blue piece as the staircase opens.
- Remove the small yellow and green blocks from the inner steps, followed by the lower red group, until the broad top shutter retracts.
- Clear edge-aligned green and red groups in the first reveal before moving either framed blue-green horizontal bar into the center.
- Route both blue-green bars across the open top lanes, then pass the long purple-green vertical piece through the central stair turn.
- Continue with red and purple groups while the middle and lower chambers count down, leaving the right-column bend empty after each exit.
- Once the lower shutter opens, clear the red vertical connected piece and remaining purple groups before committing the large green shapes.
- Feed the upper green bars and large green L shapes toward the active right gate, using empty stair steps for turns.
- Remove the last purple vertical bar and stacked outlined green cells through the right side until the completion logo appears.

Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- A stair-shaped board surrounds shutters marked 6, 6, and 12, with outer counters 8, 4, 21, and 15. The exposed starter pack is blue, red, green, and yellow; later waves add purple and framed two-color pieces.
- Goal
- Retract all three chambers in order, route the long connected pieces through the stair bend, then clear the dense green/purple late field and outlined green cells.
- Opening
- Send the exposed blue block left first, then remove the adjacent red, blue, yellow, and green pieces from the open staircase.
- Danger Zone
- A long purple-green piece or large green L parked at the middle-right bend seals the only path to the lower chamber and the final right gate.
- Mechanics
- Three successive counter shutters reveal connected blue-green and purple-green pieces before a late field dominated by large green shapes and outlined green cells.
