How to Solve Block Out Level 518 — Full Solution

  1. Send the bottom cyan row down, clear the lower red and orange blocks to their right-side gates, and remove the small green block beside the opening yellow/blue hook.
  2. Take the loose blue and purple blocks from the hook's left side, then shift the yellow/blue outline into the open middle without pinning its blue tail to the right wall.
  3. Reduce the cyan 2-count bottom panel to zero and clear the released cyan strip and adjacent green blocks before returning the yellow/blue outline to a clear edge route.
  4. Open the purple 1-count top panel; its drop adds a green/cyan outlined hook above the center, so remove the loose purple and red pieces around that new outline first.
  5. Move the green/cyan hook through the cleared middle by its full footprint, then send the nearby straight green and cyan bars to their matching left and right gates.
  6. Reduce the tall green 2-count side reservoir and clear the orange blocks along its lower edge; the expanded field then exposes a red/yellow outlined hook on the left.
  7. Keep the original yellow/blue hook on the right while routing the red/yellow hook across the upper-left opening, then clear the red top row and yellow bars it releases.
  8. Finish the yellow/blue outline through the right-side space, followed by the lower green columns and last orange pieces for the Level 518 completion screen.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Pushing the opening yellow/blue hook against the right wall while its blue tail still needs the central turning pocket.
  • Dropping the green/cyan outline into the center before the red/yellow hook's upper-left route is open.

Quick Tips for Block Out Level 518 (quick clues)

  • Clear the green/cyan outline before bringing the late red/yellow hook across the center.
Board notes 5 details
Layout
A narrow multicolor field sits beside a tall green 2-count reservoir, below a purple 1-count panel, and above a cyan 2-count band. One yellow/blue outlined hook starts on the right; later drops add a green/cyan hook and then a red/yellow hook.
Goal
Open the cyan bottom and purple top panels, keep the original yellow/blue outline movable, then drain the green side reservoir and route the green/cyan and red/yellow outlines from the expanded field.
Opening
Take the cyan floor row, lower red/orange groups, and small right-side green pieces before removing the loose blue/purple blocks around the first hook.
Danger Zone
Parking the opening yellow/blue hook against the right wall traps its blue tail. Moving the later green/cyan hook down too early blocks the center needed by the red/yellow outline after the side reservoir opens.
Mechanics
Three counted panels reshape the field in stages; the connected units are one opening yellow/blue hook, one green/cyan hook from the upper reveal, and one red/yellow hook from the expanded side reveal.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Where should the connected hooks turn in Level 518?

    Turn the opening yellow/blue hook in the middle first; use the same cleared cells for the green/cyan hook, then give the late red/yellow hook the upper-left route.

  • Which reservoir should be cleared first?

    Release the lower cyan band first, open the purple top panel for the green/cyan hook, and drain the tall green side reservoir last to expose the red/yellow hook.
