Car Sort Level 21 Walkthrough

medium Target: 24 moves 6 colors

Car Sort Level 21 is a six-shelf chute where the crate-bay traffic should be cleared out first so the upper bend can stop mixing purple and orange before the live ladder resolves.

Board Notes

Layout
A vertical road snakes past three empty crate bays near the top, one crate bay in the middle, and six active shelves below. The moving traffic mixes orange, purple, red, blue, green, yellow, and purple, while the lower half already hints at orange-red-purple finishing zones.
Goal
Solve the live shelves as blue, yellow, green, orange, red, and purple from top to bottom.
Opening
Treat the crate section like a tunnel. Peel purple out of that tunnel first, then flatten the upper active shelves into blue and yellow.
Danger Zone
If the lower purple sink is not ready when the top crate traffic drops, purple starts sharing the same bend as orange and red and the whole lower ladder slows down.
Mechanics
The crate bays are dead space; the real puzzle is getting their released traffic onto the six live shelves without reusing the same bend for two unfinished colors.

Quick Tips for Car Sort Level 21 (spoiler-free)

  • Clear the crate-tunnel traffic before you try to finish the ladder.
  • Build blue and yellow first on the live shelves.
  • Save the lowest purple shelf for late traffic cleanup.

How to Solve Car Sort Level 21 — Full Solution

  1. Peel the upper crate traffic apart so purple no longer shares the top bend with orange.
  2. Build the first live shelf as blue and the second as yellow while the upper tunnel is quiet.
  3. Settle the next shelf as green once blue and yellow are no longer competing for the same lane.
  4. Finish the lower trio in order as orange, red, and purple through the cleared outer road.
  5. Confirm the ladder solved from top to bottom as blue, yellow, green, orange, red, and purple.

Colors in this level:

Blue, Yellow, Green, Orange, Red, Purple

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Spending moves on the empty crate bays after they have already released their useful traffic.
  • Letting purple drop too early into the lower bend while orange and red still need that same corner.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What should I solve first in Car Sort Level 21?

    Clear the crate-tunnel traffic first, then lock blue and yellow on the top live shelves before you continue down the ladder.

  • Why is the crate section misleading in Level 21?

    The crates are just visual dead space. The real challenge is timing the live shelves so purple, orange, and red do not share the same bend.
