How to Solve Sand Blocks Level 142 — Full Solution

  1. Clear the upper green receivers while leaving both yellow side counters accessible.
  2. Reduce the 2 and 1 side lanes in parallel, using cyan and white pieces without sealing the blue channel.
  3. Route the orange, purple, red, dark, and green pieces around the central key and hammer-marked receivers.
  4. Open the lower lock after the side counts have shortened and the central channel has space.
  5. Finish the compact orange, green, yellow, cyan, and red receivers; the board empties and Level 142 completes normally.

  • Delay a large yellow or orange placement across the central blue/white channel.
Board notes 5 details
Layout
Yellow side lanes carry 2 and 1 counters; green receivers fill the upper area, while cyan, white, blue, orange, purple, red, and dark pieces form the central and lower route.
Goal
Lower both side counts, open the blue-and-white channel, and resolve the key, lock, hammer, and later compact color phases.
Opening
Keep both yellow side lanes accessible while clearing the upper green receivers and preserving the central key and lower lock.
Danger Zone
The 2/1 counters sit beside a narrow central channel; a parked yellow or orange piece can block the white/blue route and lower lock.
Mechanics
Unequal side counts, yellow framing lanes, a blue/white channel, key/lock markers, and hammer-marked receivers control the contraction.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What controls the opening in Level 142?

    The unequal 2 and 1 side counters determine when the narrow central blue/white channel can support the lower key and lock pieces.

  • What does the board look like later?

    After the side counts shorten, the dense center contracts into orange, green, yellow, cyan, and red phases with fewer blockers.
