How to Solve Block Out Level 522 — Full Solution

  1. Clear the recycle-marked green block at upper-left, then remove the exposed purple group and short red pieces beside it.
  2. Take the magenta/red horizontal bar off the upper row and free the cyan-framed red square without parking it in the center waist.
  3. Turn the yellow/cyan hook clockwise and place it in the open upper-right pocket while the purple center shutter falls from 7.
  4. When the 7-count shutter retracts, remove the broad red horizontal bars first, then the yellow vertical columns revealed beneath them.
  5. Slide the vertical purple/cyan connected bar out of the center channel and clear the cyan-framed red and blue squares behind it.
  6. Remove the loose blue squares and remaining yellow pieces; keep the yellow/cyan hook at upper-right until its cyan leg has a clear route through the waist.
  7. Route the yellow/cyan hook through the cleared center, then continue with red, blue, green, and yellow groups until the lower 16-count shutter reaches zero.
  8. After the full-width shutter retracts, clear the wide red formations from left and center before moving the compact blue and green floor groups.
  9. At lower-right, turn the final cyan/blue right-angle connected piece toward the bottom cyan gate and keep its blue trailing leg clear of the corner.
  10. Finish with the red groups above the bottom red gate after the connected piece is gone.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Leaving the vertical purple/cyan connected bar in the waist when either shutter retracts.
  • Calling the opening yellow/cyan hook the last connected object; the final one is the cyan/blue right angle at lower-right.

Board notes 5 details
Layout
A compact top chamber with a recycle-marked green block, red and purple pieces, cyan-framed squares, a yellow/cyan hook, and magenta/red bar sits above 7- and 16-count purple shutters.
Goal
Empty the top chamber, open both shutters, keep the center waist clear, and route the final cyan/blue right-angle piece from lower-right to the bottom cyan gate.
Opening
Remove the upper-left green block, exposed purple and red pieces, and magenta/red bar, then reposition the yellow/cyan hook into the upper-right pocket.
Danger Zone
The first reveal puts broad red bars, yellow columns, a vertical purple/cyan bar, and cyan-framed squares in the waist; leaving the vertical bar there blocks both layers.
Mechanics
A 7-count center shutter and full-width 16-count floor shutter release separate layers into one constricted waist.
