How to Solve Sand Blocks Level 16 — Full Solution
- Drag the blue two-cell receiver from the right-center bay left across the middle row.
- Stop it below the blue half of the upper-left reservoir and wait for its 100% clear.
- Raise the bottom-left red receiver vertically beneath the remaining upper-left red cap.
- Lift the bottom-right red receiver straight up under the lower red half of the upper-right reservoir.
- Slide the remaining blue bar back to the right beneath the upper-right blue layer.
- Hold it in the right catch bay until the last blue grains settle and the board empties.
Colors in this level:

Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Trying to drag a red block sideways through the blue crossing row.
- Returning the blue bar right before the left red cap has cleared.
Quick Tips for Sand Blocks Level 16 (quick clues)

- Wait for each reservoir half to settle before reversing the blue bar.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- A four-column square has red-over-blue sand at upper-left and blue-over-red sand at upper-right. A two-cell horizontal blue receiver with a left-right arrow starts in the right-center bay; two red two-cell receivers with vertical arrows start in the bottom bays.
- Goal
- Collect left blue, left red, right red, and right blue in that order while obeying each receiver's shown movement axis.
- Opening
- Slide the blue bar left beneath the lower blue half of the left reservoir, then raise the left red block straight into the emptied bay.
- Danger Zone
- The blue receiver cannot turn into a vertical lane, and neither red receiver can cross sideways. The central row is the blue bar's only route.
- Mechanics
- Arrow markings visibly constrain the horizontal 1x2 blue bar to left-right motion and both vertical 2x1 red bars to up-down motion.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do the arrows mean in Level 16?
They show each receiver's allowed axis: the blue bar moves left-right, while the red blocks move up-down.
Which color finishes Level 16?
Blue finishes after the bar shuttles back beneath the upper-right reservoir.
