How to Solve Sand Blocks Level 118 — Full Solution

  1. Clear the small orange, purple, green, yellow, and pink receivers beneath the four feeds so the 15/7/3 pockets can drain.
  2. Let the cyan side 10s, lower 10s, and bottom 11 counter fall through the open center without stacking a long receiver on the purple bar.
  3. After the counter phase opens the board, separate the orange and pink lock pieces from the key-marked receivers and resolve the first lock.
  4. Stage the blue, cyan, orange, and pink key pieces around the edges while the remaining green receivers fill, preserving the central crossing.
  5. Finish the last green, cyan, and blue receivers one at a time; the sparse grid clears into the Sand Blocks confetti screen.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Parking the purple center bar or a large blue/cyan L over a key-marked receiver before the orange and pink locks open.
  • Treating the open second phase as free space and filling both sides of the crossing before the final green receiver has a route.

Quick Tips for Sand Blocks Level 118 (quick clues)

  • Treat the purple center bar as a temporary blocker and preserve one crossing for the top feeds.
  • Reserve every key-marked square until the matching orange or pink lock has visibly changed state.
Board notes 5 details
Layout
Four feeds—cyan, pink, orange, and blue—sit over a pink 15 pocket, yellow and purple 7 pockets, and an orange 3 pocket. Small orange, purple, green, yellow, and pink receivers line the upper middle; cyan 10 pockets flank a purple bar, with lower cyan 10 blocks and a bottom 11 counter.
Goal
Open the numbered upper reservoirs and lower cyan counters, then use key-marked receivers to resolve the orange and pink locks before clearing the final blue, cyan, and green shapes.
Opening
Cycle the compact colored receivers around the 15/7/3 shelf and keep the wide purple bar out of the center while the cyan 10 and 11 counters begin their synchronized countdown.
Danger Zone
The wide purple bar and later blue/cyan L pieces share the lock-chain crossing. Parking one over a key-marked receiver before the orange and pink locks open blocks the remaining top-feed colors.
Mechanics
A dense numbered cyan phase transforms into a sparse key-and-lock phase with lock counters, key icons, 100% receiver flashes, and large L-shaped endgame pieces.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What separates the two phases in Level 118?

    The 15/7/3 upper pockets and cyan 10/11 counters must fall first; once they open the board, the lock and key icons become the controlling route.

  • Where should the large L pieces wait?

    Keep blue and cyan L pieces along the outer lanes until the orange and pink lock chain has opened the central crossing.
