Sand Blocks: Drop Puzzle Level 163 Walkthrough
Level 163 begins with a HARD LEVEL overlay and becomes a tall left-side drain beside a separate right chest marked 2. Clear the upper green/orange/brown spine before the middle L pieces, then finish the lower magenta and red pockets without sealing C3-C4.

How to Solve Sand Blocks Level 163 — Full Solution
- Place the upper green square at C3/R1-R2 under the left feed and wait for it to clear.
- Move the upper orange L from C1-C2/R1-R3 to C2-C3/R2-R4, leaving C1 open for the next exposed layer; wait for the orange settle.
- Route the brown L through C2-C4/R4-R5, then clear the gray vertical at C4/R4-R5 so the upper-right purple stream has a vertical landing lane.
- Catch the blue L at C2-C3/R6-R7, followed by the green bridge L at C3-C4/R6-R9 only after the brown/gray pair has disappeared.
- Clear the gray square at C2-C3/R8-R9 and the lower orange L at C1-C3/R10-R11, waiting between shared-left-chute placements.
- Move the lower brown bar to C2-C4/R10-R11, then place the magenta vertical at C4/R10-R12 and the black lower bar at C2-C4/R11-R12.
- Use the final red square at C1/R12 and the remaining purple/blue receivers around C4-C5 to drain the feed while leaving the chest-side landing cells free.
- Wait for every receiver to disappear and stop at the source's SAND BLOCKS confetti completion; no post-clear move is inferred.
Colors in this level:
Green, Orange, Brown, Gray, Blue, Magenta, Black, Red, Purple, White
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Placing the large green L across C3-C4/R6-R9 before the upper pair clears cuts off the lower magenta route.
- Using the right chest as an early target wastes the only open landing cells beside the left reservoir.
- Dropping the gray vertical into C4/R4-R5 before the purple feed lane opens blocks the next layer.
Quick Tips for Sand Blocks Level 163 (quick clues)
- Work down the left reservoir before spending space beside the right chest; the chest is a late obstacle, not the opening target.
- Keep the C3-C4 spine available for the blue and green L pieces until the upper brown and gray receivers are gone.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- After the Hard Level overlay, use C1-C5/R1-R12 for the puzzle and C6-C7/R1-R11 for the tall right chest, which starts at 2. The left feed enters an orange L reservoir at C1-C2/R1-R3 with white/green layers above it; a purple feed enters near C5/R1. Receivers are green square C3/R1-R2, red bar C3-C4/R3, brown L C2-C4/R4-R5, gray vertical C4/R4-R5, blue L C2-C3/R6-R7, green L C3-C4/R6-R9, gray square C2-C3/R8-R9, orange L C1-C3/R10-R11, brown lower bar C2-C4/R10-R11, magenta vertical C4/R10-R12, black bar C2-C4/R11-R12, and red square C1/R12.
- Goal
- Drain the left reservoir and use each clear to open the next vertical segment; leave the right 2-counter chest alone until the last feed has a landing route. The verified ending is the empty board and SAND BLOCKS confetti.
- Opening
- Catch the green square at C3/R1-R2 first, then move the upper orange L from C1-C2/R1-R3 into C2-C3/R2-R4. Wait for both layers to settle before touching the brown L or the gray bar.
- Danger Zone
- The green L at C3-C4/R6-R9 is a bridge-shaped blocker. Dropping it across the C3-C4 spine before the upper brown/gray pair clears splits the board and leaves the lower magenta vertical without a route. A gray vertical at C4/R4-R5 parked too early also blocks the purple feed.
- Mechanics
- The source proves a Hard Level overlay, a tall asymmetric board, a separate right chest marked 2, layered left white/green/orange supply, and a long clear-to-open chain of L-shaped and bar receivers.
Frequently Asked Questions
Should the right chest marked 2 be filled first?
No. It remains a separate late-stage counter obstacle while the left reservoir and its L-shaped receivers are cleared.
What makes the lower section safe?
The lower orange, brown, magenta, black, and red pieces become safe only after the C3-C4 spine has been cleared from the upper brown/gray and middle green L chain.
