Block Out level guide
Block Out Level 505 Walkthrough
Block Out Level 505 divides three minutes into two full-width 2-count reveals: open the magenta shutter from the floor pocket, preserve both side routes for the cyan shutter, then clear long red/cyan bends before the yellow network and narrow side-meter finish.

How to Solve Block Out Level 505 — Full Solution
- Clear the exposed red row and blue/cyan floor groups, then remove reachable yellow and purple pieces from the bottom pocket.
- Pull the red L away from the right wall and finish reducing the lower magenta shutter from 2 to zero.
- Take accessible green/purple groups from the left side of the first reveal and red/cyan groups from the right.
- Route the two large yellow/green L footprints separately while keeping the long yellow horizontal bar out of the center.
- Clear the central cyan/red bends and remaining blue blocks to reduce the upper cyan shutter from 2 to 1.
- Finish the cyan 2 only after both side routes are open, then work the dense upper reveal from its outside edges.
- Remove the upper red, cyan, green, and pink bars before lowering the long yellow pieces into their lanes.
- Align the slim green, cyan, purple, and red pieces with the colored side meters as those narrow exits activate.
- Clear the remaining yellow L/bar network, then route the outlined purple L and outlined red rectangle through the center.
- Send the final green L, purple bar, and red block through their matching edge gates to empty the board.

Cyan, Magenta, Blue, Red, Yellow, Purple, Green, Pink
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Parking the long yellow horizontal bar across the center while the cyan/red bends still need the only crossing.
- Opening the upper reveal with one side lane blocked, leaving its long shapes nowhere to turn.
Quick Tips for Block Out Level 505 (quick clues)
- Open the magenta 2 completely before committing either large yellow/green L to the middle.
- Clear red/cyan bends before laying a long yellow bar across the center.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- A cyan 2 shutter sits above a magenta 2 shutter, leaving only a shallow bottom pocket of blue/cyan bars, red, yellow, purple, and one red L. Perimeter counters begin at 19 on both upper sides, 7/10 beside the lower shutter, 1 at the right, and 19 along the floor.
- Goal
- Open the lower and upper 2-count shutters in sequence, route the large L/bar footprints without closing both sides, and align late slim pieces with their colored side meters.
- Opening
- Clear the exposed red row and blue/cyan floor groups, take reachable yellow and purple pieces, then pull the red L away from the right wall to finish the magenta 2.
- Danger Zone
- A long yellow bar across the center blocks both the cyan/red bends and the traffic needed to reduce the upper cyan shutter.
- Mechanics
- Two full-width 2-count shutters create three successive fields; late slim colored side meters provide narrow exits for the remaining vertical pieces.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which shutter opens first in Block Out Level 505?
The lower magenta 2 opens from the initial floor pocket; clear its first reveal before finishing the upper cyan 2.
When should the long yellow bars move?
Move them after the central red/cyan bends have exited, because those bends need the early crossing and yellow has more room later.
