Magic Sort level guide
Magic Sort Level 345 Walkthrough
Magic Sort Level 345 is a three-tier, fifteen-bottle release-and-route board with eight tall red-capped corked gift boxes filling the top row T1-T5 and the left half of the middle row M1-M3, plus a small pink-topped near-empty, two small black near-empty flasks in M4 and M5, and a bottom row of B1 blue full, B2 green-over-white mixer, B3 short purple, B4 green-over-white mixer and B5 orange full. Pop all eight caps in one quick wave using the B1 blue, B2 green, B4 green and B5 orange tops so the eight revealed single-color bottles drop into the T1-T5 and M1-M3 slots, park white at the M5 starting empty by pouring the B2 exposed white top first, then route every revealed color plus the bottom row's blue, green, white, purple and orange plus the pink-topped near-empty through the three starting empties (M4, M5 and B3) and top off the ten colors (red, blue, cyan, yellow, green, purple, pink, orange, brown, gray) so the board ends with ten full single-color bottles plus the B3 leftover empty.

How to Solve Magic Sort Level 345 — Full Solution
- Pop the first red cap by pouring the B1 blue top onto the T1 gift-box slot so the cap opens with confetti and a revealed single-color bottle drops into T1, then pop the second cap by pouring the B5 orange top onto the T3 gift-box slot so the orange lane begins to bank.
- Pop the third cap by pouring the B2 green top onto the T5 gift-box slot so the third cap opens, then pour the B2 now-exposed white top onto the M5 starting empty so M5 becomes a clean white buffer and the green tail is separated from the white tail.
- Pop the remaining five caps in the same wave — one cap per top from B1, B5, B2, B4 plus any other clean top — so the middle row ends up with the M1-M3 revealed single-color bottles plus the M4 starting empty and the M5 white buffer.
- Pour the B4 green top onto a freed gift-box slot or onto the parked green lane, then pour the B4 now-exposed white top onto the parked white at M5 so M5 grows into a fuller white lane and B4 collapses into a working empty.
- Walk the small pink-topped near-empty (wherever it sits on the top row) onto a freed gift-box slot or onto a matching pink lane, and walk the B3 short purple flask onto a clean destination so every top-row and middle-row base is cleared.
- Use the freed gift-box slots, the B4 working empty and the M4 starting empty as scratch buffers to split the remaining two-color segments that surface from the revealed gift-box bottles, keep every working buffer single-color, and never pour two different colors into the same buffer.
- Top off the ten colors (red, blue, cyan, yellow, green, purple, pink, orange, brown, gray) so every bottle finishes on a single color and the board ends with ten full single-color lanes plus the B3 leftover empty.
Colors in this level:
Red, Blue, Cyan, Yellow, Green, Purple, Pink, Orange, Brown, Gray
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Pouring a non-matching color onto any of the eight red caps, which still breaks the cap but strands the wrong color on top of the revealed bottle and costs an extra pour to clear before the bottle can join the sort.
- Burning the M4 or M5 small black near-empty on a mismatched cap-pour before a white or a green lane exists, which strands the first home and stalls the rest of the run.
- Popping the caps one at a time instead of in one quick wave, which leaves the later caps behind revealed bottles that have no path for the next cap-pour.
Quick Tips for Magic Sort Level 345 (spoiler-free)
- Pop all eight red caps in one quick wave using the B1 blue, B2 green, B4 green and B5 orange tops first so the eight revealed single-color bottles all land in working slots before any non-matching top is poured.
- Park white at the M5 starting empty by pouring the B2 exposed white top first so the white tail has a home before the green base is moved, and walk the B4 exposed white top onto the parked white at M5 to grow the white lane.
- Keep every working buffer single-color — never pour two different colors into the same M4, M5 or B3 buffer or the cap-opening wave strands and the rest of the run stalls.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- A three-tier, fifteen-bottle board whose headline feature is eight tall red-capped corked gift boxes that occupy the top row T1-T5 and the left half of the middle row M1-M3. The top row is six positions visually but five regular slots: T1-T5 are the tall red-capped gift boxes (each a four-segment tall red flask with a small red cap and a small bow on top, sealed until any color is poured onto the cap), with a small black near-empty flask carrying a pink top parked at the right edge of the top row. The middle row is five bottles: M1-M3 are three more tall red-capped gift boxes matching the top-row shape, M4 is a small black near-empty flask (one of the three starting empties), and M5 is a small black near-empty flask with a green base (the second starting empty). The bottom row is five small regular bottles: B1 = blue full (four segments), B2 = green-over-white two-segment mixer, B3 = short purple flask (one of the three starting empties, acts as a small scratch buffer), B4 = green-over-white two-segment mixer, and B5 = orange full (four segments). There are exactly three starting empties (M4, M5 and B3), the eight tall red-capped gift boxes are the only special tile on the board, and there are no frozen, magic, star, paint, scroll-wrap or locked-box tiles. The most visually dominant feature is the unbroken block of eight tall red-capped gift boxes that fills the entire top row and the left half of the middle row, and the second most dominant feature is the B2 and B4 green-over-white mixers, which are the only mid-tier mixers on the whole board.
- Goal
- Pop the eight tall red-capped corked gift boxes (T1-T5 and M1-M3) by pouring any color segment onto each cap, which releases the hidden single-color bottle from each gift box into the play area, then route every revealed color plus the bottom row's blue, green, white, purple and orange plus the small pink-topped near-empty through the three starting empties (M4, M5 and B3) until every bottle ends on a single color. The chokepoint is the cap-opening wave: the eight red caps have to be popped in one quick wave using tops that are already safely parked so the released single-color bottles land in working slots, and any cap that is opened onto a non-matching top burns a buffer the rest of the sort needs. The second chokepoint is the B2 and B4 green-over-white mixers — they share a green base and a white base, and the white tail has to land on the M5 starting empty or on a freed gift-box slot, or white strands across the bottom row.
- Opening
- Start in the bottom row. Pop the first red cap by pouring the B1 blue top onto a freed gift-box slot in T1 so the cap opens and the revealed single-color bottle drops into T1, then pop the second cap by pouring the B5 orange top onto a freed gift-box slot in T3 so the orange lane begins to bank. Pop the third cap by pouring the B2 green top onto a freed gift-box slot in T5 so the third cap opens, then pour the B2 now-exposed white top onto the M5 starting empty so M5 becomes a clean white buffer and the green tail is separated from the white tail. Continue popping the remaining five caps in the same wave — one cap per top from B1, B5, B2, B4 and any other clean top — so the middle row ends up with the M1-M3 revealed single-color bottles plus the M4 and M5 buffers and the freed top-row gift-box slots.
- Danger Zone
- Pouring a non-matching color onto any of the eight red caps still breaks the cap (the gift box pops on any pour) but strands the wrong color on top of the revealed bottle, which then needs an extra pour to clear before the bottle can join the sort. The two M4 and M5 small black near-empty flasks are the only true buffers in the middle row, and burning either of them on a mismatched cap-pour before a white or a green lane exists strands the first home and the rest of the run stalls. The B2 and B4 green-over-white mixers are the only mid-tier mixers on the board, and the white tail has to land on the M5 starting empty or on a freed gift-box slot before the green base is moved, or white has no other receiver. The eight caps also have to be popped in one wave: pop one or two caps first and the later caps end up behind revealed bottles that have no path for the next cap-pour.
- Mechanics
- A three-tier, fifteen-bottle release-and-route board whose only special tile type is the eight tall red-capped corked gift boxes in the top row T1-T5 and the middle row M1-M3. Each gift box is a tall, decorated four-segment red flask with a small red cap and a small bow on top, sealed until any color segment is poured onto the cap, at which point the gift box opens with confetti and a hidden single-color bottle drops into the slot — so the play area expands from the original fifteen positions (five top, five middle, five bottom) into the same fifteen positions but with eight of them now holding single-color bottles. The chokepoint is cap-opening wave plus buffer discipline: pop all eight caps in one quick wave using tops from B1, B2, B4 and B5 plus any other clean top, then route every revealed color plus the bottom row's blue, green, white, purple and orange plus the small pink-topped near-empty through the three starting empties (M4, M5 and B3), and top off the ten colors (red, blue, cyan, yellow, green, purple, pink, orange, brown, gray) so the board ends with ten full single-color bottles plus the B3 leftover empty.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the first pour in Magic Sort Level 345?
Pop the first red cap by pouring the B1 blue top onto the T1 gift-box slot so the cap opens with confetti and a revealed single-color bottle drops into T1, then pop the second cap by pouring the B5 orange top onto the T3 gift-box slot so the orange lane begins to bank. The eight caps have to be popped in one quick wave, so use the cleanest tops from B1, B2, B4 and B5 first before any non-matching top is poured.
How do the eight tall red-capped corked gift boxes work in Magic Sort Level 345?
Each of the eight tall red-capped gift boxes in T1-T5 and M1-M3 is a tall, decorated four-segment red flask with a small red cap and a small bow on top, sealed until any color segment is poured onto the cap, at which point the gift box opens with confetti and a hidden single-color bottle drops into the slot. The caps do not require a specific matching color to crack, but pouring a non-matching color strands the wrong color on top of the revealed bottle, which costs an extra pour to clear, so pop all eight caps in one quick wave using the B1, B2, B4 and B5 tops first.
Why park white at the M5 starting empty first in Level 345?
The B2 and B4 green-over-white mixers share a green base and a white base, and the white tail has no other receiver on the board. Pour the B2 exposed white top onto the M5 starting empty first so M5 becomes a clean white buffer, then walk the B4 exposed white top onto the parked white at M5 to grow the white lane. Skipping this step strands white across the bottom row and stalls the rest of the run.
