How to Solve Block Out Level 688 — Full Solution
- Clear the right-edge green and accessible pink/red side pieces, then separate the two cyan bends along the bottom.
- Lift the small yellow L into the open starter area without parking the long red vertical in the center.
- Send cyan, pink, and red outward until the lower 2-cover reaches zero and retracts.
- Clear the reveal perimeter-first: exposed red blocks, cyan horizontals, then yellow and green toward their gates.
- Turn the large red L shapes through the middle one at a time, restoring the central cells between them.
- When the 14-cover opens, clear the divided crown's outer green and red groups before lowering cyan through the divider.
- Remove the purple/pink horizontals so the long red column can use the left side without trapping yellow on the right.
- Alternate the late red and yellow bends around the perimeter, sending each piece out before rotating its partner.
- Clear the final red vertical and yellow foot, then lift the last yellow rectangle through the broad top gate.

Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Two orange-edged purple covers fill the upper half; below them, mirrored red/cyan bends, pink bars, a yellow L, a yellow rectangle, and a green edge block crowd a shallow starter strip.
- Goal
- Open the lower cover, use its reveal to reduce the 14-count crown, and drain both sides of the divided upper chamber without occupying the central turning cells.
- Opening
- Clear the right green edge and accessible pink/red pieces, then separate the bottom cyan bends and lift the small yellow L into free space.
- Danger Zone
- A large red L or the long yellow bend parked in the middle blocks the crown's cyan pieces from crossing the divider into the main board.
- Mechanics
- A 2-cover sits beneath a 14-cover, the crown reveal is split by a vertical divider, and the final red/yellow bends share one turning pocket.
