How to Solve Pixel Drop: Bus Puzzle Level 23 — Full Solution
- Park purple 4 and yellow 20 first to start breaking the magenta cloth and the first yellow lamps.
- Bring in black 10, yellow 14, and orange 40 for the lower arch, center diamond, and first inner clears.
- Use green 40 once the side diamonds expose, then let purple finish the remaining outer cloth strips.
- Preserve one slot for red 27 and the late black bus when the lower corner curls and bottom arch finally separate.
- Drain the thin yellow, orange, red, and black leftovers after the side lamps shrink, then wait for the empty frame.
Colors in this level:
Purple, Yellow, Orange, Green, Black, Red
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Parking every yellow bus immediately and leaving no slot for the late black arch.
- Treating the center lamps as the end of the board while the red lower corners are still closed.
- Ignoring the visible question-mark entries and overcommitting to repeated green buses when red or black cleanup is next.
Quick Tips for Pixel Drop: Bus Puzzle Level 23 (quick clues)
- Use purple and yellow to open the shell, but do not let repeated yellow lamps consume every slot.
- Green buses are for the side diamonds, not a signal to ignore the incoming black arch pieces.
- The red corner curls are late finishers, so save space for them before you clear the last lamp.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- The board looks like a hanging lantern or jeweled badge with a magenta shell, black lattice frame, green side diamonds, yellow lamp lights, an orange center diamond, and red lower corner curls. The first parked buses are purple 4 and yellow 20, while orange 40, green 40, and several question-mark buses are visible in the queue.
- Goal
- Strip the magenta shell and the yellow lamps first, but preserve a slot for the black bottom arch and the red corner curls because those late pieces survive after the center lights already look almost finished.
- Opening
- Open with purple 4, then add yellow 20. The next checkpoints are black 10, yellow 14, and orange 40, followed by yellow 12, orange 4, green 40, and purple 9 when the lower diamond and side diamonds unlock.
- Danger Zone
- The lamps tempt repeated yellow and green buses into every slot. If red 27 or the late black 1 appears with no lane left, the lower arch and corner curls stall under a full row.
- Mechanics
- Symmetric lantern board with hidden late pressure. The outer magenta cloth and center lights clear early, but the finish depends on red lower curls and a black spine that appear after the obvious colors already seem safe.
