How to Solve Block Out Level 487 — Full Solution
- Remove lower-right blue and yellow groups, then clear the first red bar to open a lane beneath the stacked chains.
- Route the free blue key-bearing block through that lane, followed by the accessible purple key carrier.
- Clear side red and green groups while keeping the center available for the remaining keys and yellow/green hook.
- Bring remaining key carriers to the chained markers, then move the yellow/green hook by its full footprint.
- Drain the last first-wave purple, green, and yellow groups until the upper 9-panel retracts.
- Clear edge-aligned green/yellow pieces, then route the upper and right green hooks ahead of the large purple rectangles.
- Remove blue-framed purple blocks and work around the glowing nine-cell center, taking additional green hooks from top to bottom.
- Finish the purple mass from the outside inward, ending with central pieces through the top purple gate.

Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- A chamber marked 9 spans a dense green, red, purple, yellow, and blue field. Three chained markers marked 2 stack through the center among visible key carriers, framed bars, and a yellow/green hook.
- Goal
- Use the key carriers to release all three chains, open the upper chamber, then route the second phase's green hooks and purple blocks through their edge gates.
- Opening
- Clear lower-right blue/yellow groups and the first red bar, then bring the free blue and purple key carriers into the opened horizontal lane.
- Danger Zone
- A long purple bar across the middle crossing blocks the remaining key carrier and also removes the turning space for the yellow/green hook.
- Mechanics
- Three chained markers consume visible key carriers before a purple-heavy reveal adds green connected hooks, blue-framed purple blocks, a 13-count top edge, and a glowing 3-by-3 region.
