Block Out Level 542 Walkthrough
Block Out Level 542 places a horizontal 1-count chamber and an upper-right 3-count chamber before a large 21-count chamber; clear the red/blue floor funnel, turn the yellow/red corner, and preserve the center for later joined shapes.

How to Solve Block Out Level 542 — Full Solution
- Send the small red lower group through the red floor gate and clear the loose cyan/blue block beside it.
- Slide the left purple block toward its side exit and take the exposed blue column downward; after the two lower red blocks leave, the horizontal 1-count chamber retracts.
- Turn the yellow/red connected corner through the opened funnel, keeping its red cap away from the right wall.
- Send the far-left cyan field to the left opening, the pink L to the right side, and the center yellow/purple rectangles out of the funnel to reduce the upper-right 3-count chamber.
- When the purple chamber opens, clear its top red/cyan corner to the right, then remove the green horizontal strip and cyan block below it so the center stays open.
- Move the tall yellow/red corner down through the red/blue floor junction, then route the released red/cyan L toward the right-side opening.
- Clear the red vertical bar beside the purple square before shifting that square right, then move the long cyan L down through the center toward the blue floor gate.
- Reduce the 21 chamber while taking the right yellow/red corner, left green/orange hook, and cyan/pink corner one at a time through the cleared center.
- After 21 opens, send its upper-left green and cyan blocks to their edge exits, then clear the orange blocks on the left and lower-right without covering the blue floor lane.
- Finish by dropping the last cyan L toward the blue floor gate and routing the final orange L through the open lower route.
Colors in this level:
Orange, Purple, Blue, Red, Cyan, Yellow, Pink, Green
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Laying the long yellow leg across the funnel before the cyan and purple opening pieces leave.
- Moving the large purple square while adjacent red blocks still close its exit lane.
Quick Tips for Block Out Level 542 (quick clues)
- Empty loose floor pieces before moving the joined yellow/red shape.
- Route deep connected shapes one at a time while the center is still empty.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- An upper-left orange chamber marked 21 sits beside a purple 3-count chamber and above a shallow horizontal blue chamber marked 1. A far-left red bar, purple/blue columns, lower red blocks, cyan square, and yellow/red connected corner crowd the red/blue floor funnel.
- Goal
- Open the horizontal 1 chamber, then the purple 3 chamber and finally the 21 chamber while routing each released connected corner through the repeatedly shared center.
- Opening
- Clear the red floor group, loose cyan/blue block, and exposed purple pieces before turning the yellow/red corner.
- Danger Zone
- The bottom-center funnel is both a floor-gate approach and the only turning space for the yellow/red corner; covering it too early stalls the first reservoir.
- Mechanics
- A 1-count horizontal chamber and 3-count purple chamber precede the 21 chamber; their releases add red/cyan, pink/cyan, and green/orange connected shapes plus long cyan fields.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which reservoir opens first in Block Out Level 542?
Clear the shallow horizontal 1-count chamber first; its cells are needed to turn the opening yellow/red connected corner before the upper-right 3-count chamber.
What space must remain available after the first phase?
Keep the bottom-center funnel available because the deep red/cyan and green/orange connected shapes reuse it.
