Nut Sort Level 13 Walkthrough
Nut Sort Level 13 is easiest when you leave the lower-left purple stack alone and use the middle white peg to unlock yellow from above. The board only starts flowing once that center shuttle is used for one clean reveal instead of turning the finished purple side into extra storage.
Board Notes
- Layout
- Level 13 begins with a nearly finished purple stack already sitting on the lower left, an empty white peg in the lower middle, and one bare base on the lower right. Above them are four mixed top posts led by a pink-heavy stack on the far left, then yellow-orange, blue, and green-white caps. The middle row is packed with three striped stacks, so most of the board pressure is above the lower purple anchor rather than beside it.
- Goal
- The real target is to protect that lower-left purple column while using the center white peg to expose the yellow route in the upper half. The puzzle gets easier once yellow grows into a taller clean stack, because then the crowded middle row stops competing for the same two landing spaces.
- Opening
- The solve starts from the top row, not from the almost-finished purple stack below. One upper blocker is pulled onto the center white peg, which lets the yellow column start growing. After that, the player keeps the lower-left purple column intact while the middle-row bands are reduced one layer at a time.
- Danger Zone
- The obvious mistake is turning the lower-left purple stack into a shuttle lane just because it already looks clean. If that purple anchor gets disturbed, the board loses its safest finished column and the silver-white cleanup on the lower half becomes much less controlled.
- Mechanics
- Level 13 is built around respecting an existing solved lane. Instead of creating a new buffer from scratch, you are asked to leave the purple anchor alone and use the center white peg for the only temporary hold that really matters.
Quick Tips for Nut Sort Level 13 (spoiler-free)
- When a lower stack already looks solved, do not automatically use it as spare space. In Level 13, preserving that purple anchor is stronger than gaining one extra temporary landing.
- With 7 colors in play, clear the pair with the fewest blockers first so the board opens up instead of tightening.
- If the board feels stuck, look for the color with the cleanest path and use that to regain space.
How to Solve Nut Sort Level 13 — Full Solution
- Ignore the almost-finished purple column at the bottom and work from the upper rows first.
- Pull the pale blocker onto the center white peg so the yellow route in the top half opens up.
- Grow the yellow stack before you start peeling apart the busiest middle-row band.
- Return the center shuttle quickly and keep the purple anchor untouched while the red and pink pieces separate on the right.
- Use the reopened lower lanes to finish silver-white late, after purple and yellow are already stable.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I use the lower purple stack as spare space in Nut Sort Level 13?
No. The lower-left purple column is your safest finished anchor, so the solve is cleaner when you preserve it and shuttle through the center peg instead.
