Car Sort Level 88 Walkthrough
Car Sort Level 88 is an archive-style tower where the upper horizontal bands and checked tray must calm down before the lower pink-green crates can safely use the corners.
Board Notes
- Layout
- A tall rectangular tower carries layered horizontal bands above a checked purple tray, with crate-style receivers waiting below.
- Goal
- Flatten the upper bands first, protect the checked tray second, and finish the lower crates only after the tower stops borrowing the same corners.
- Opening
- Clear the white-yellow shelf and leave the lower crates flexible while the pale aqua band and checked tray stabilize.
- Danger Zone
- If the lower pink or green crates harden while the checked tray still needs the same corner route, the purple-blue middle layers get stuck.
- Mechanics
- The checked tray is a staging shelf rather than a finish. The upper bands have to stop cascading into it first.
Quick Tips for Car Sort Level 88 (spoiler-free)
- Protect the checked tray before the lower crates grow.
- Flatten the pale aqua band before the lower corner changes owners.
- Treat the lower row as late cleanup, not early storage.
How to Solve Car Sort Level 88 — Full Solution
- Flatten the upper white-yellow shelf until the checked tray is no longer fed from the top.
- Straighten the pale aqua band before the lower crates begin to commit.
- Keep the checked purple tray flexible while the middle blue and purple layers still use the same corners.
- Hand the outer turns to the lower crates only after the upper half has already reduced to resolved sections.
- Finish the pink, green, and white lower cleanup once the tower is done with the checked tray as staging.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

- Locking the corners into finish work before the upper bands have flattened enough to hand them off.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the hinge in Car Sort Level 88?
The checked purple tray is the gate because it decides whether the upper bands can hand traffic downward cleanly.
Why are the lower crates late in Level 88?
Because they share the same corners the checked tray and upper bands still need until the tower is calmer.
