How to Solve Block Out Level 627 — Full Solution
- Send the first loose pink piece through the bottom pink gate and the first blue starter piece through the bottom blue gate; the visible working counters become pink 2, green 2, top 16, and left 26.
- Clear the remaining lower-right pink blocks, then remove the framed mint vertical beside the bottom gate so the right corridor opens from top to bottom.
- Finish the green 2-shutter first: the second green exit reaches zero and reveals orange/red blocks, a cyan vertical, yellow pieces, and a green-framed purple square; move the orange block right first.
- Finish the separate pink 2-shutter next: the second pink exit reaches zero and reveals the framed yellow L with pink/red pieces; move the framed L into the cleared right half before the pink bar.
- Empty both short-counter waves—orange and red to the side gates, cyan down, then the green-framed purple square to the right—so nothing remains under the long top shutter.
- A purple L through the right purple gate takes the horizontal 16-shutter from 1 to zero and exposes a long yellow horizontal with green, blue, mint, and purple blocks; send the new green horizontal through the top green gate first.
- Clear the 16-wave in order: yellow horizontal, blue top cluster, mint vertical, then the green-framed purple square, restoring the central lane before the left chamber opens.
- Continue the square 26-shutter countdown with reachable blue, green, pink, orange, and red pieces while keeping the left blue gate unobstructed.
- A dark-blue vertical through the left blue gate takes the 26 counter from 1 to zero and reveals orange columns, a large green L, a pink horizontal, and blue/red blocks; send the new green horizontal through the top green gate first.
- Move the red and blue lower-arm blocks to the left gates one at a time; the framed blue block exits left and the verified Level 627 board is empty with three seconds remaining.
Colors in this level:
Mint, Light blue, Blue, Green, Yellow, Pink, Red, Orange, Purple
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Leaving pieces from a 2-shutter in the right corridor when the top or square chamber begins releasing its next wave.
- Parking a long yellow or red bar under the 16-shutter, which cuts the board into two unusable halves.
Quick Tips for Block Out Level 627 (quick clues)
- Finish each 2-shutter wave before allowing the next covered chamber to refill the right corridor.
- Take long bars immediately when the 16-shutter opens so they cannot bridge across the top lane.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- The square left and horizontal top shutters open at 28 and 18, while the green and pink vertical shutters show 2 and 3. The first two starter exits establish the working values 26 and 16 and reduce the pink shutter to 2, leaving two distinct 2-shutters above the lower starter.
- Goal
- Use the lower starter to retract both 2-shutters, clear their right-side waves completely, then preserve the central lanes for the much larger 16- and 26-shutter releases.
- Opening
- Send the lower-right pink pieces out, clear the framed mint vertical, then work the two blue verticals and mint/light-blue blocks until the framed yellow/green L can leave.
- Danger Zone
- A long pink/red bar or framed L left in the tall right corridor or the lane under the 16-shutter blocks the short-count waves and removes the turn space required by the 26-chamber.
- Mechanics
- Two short vertical feeds open first, followed by a long top feed and a large square chamber that repeatedly refill the same central routing space from opposite sides.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which counters should you reduce first in Block Out Level 627?
Open the green and pink 2-shutters from the lower starter before committing space to the slower 16- and 26-chambers.
How do you make room for the 26-chamber wave?
Completely clear the right-side short-counter waves and keep both the central lane and the strip below the top shutter empty.
