Sand Blocks level guide
Sand Blocks: Drop Puzzle Level 236 Walkthrough
Level 236 begins in a small pocket controlled by top 3 and left 8 gates while shutters 6, 12, and 11 hide most of the board. Open the shutters in stages, keep each shutter-edge lane available, then route the expanded irregular receiver field into a sparse green-cyan finish.

How to Solve Sand Blocks Level 236 — Full Solution
- Clear the yellow horizontal below the top gate, then match the small green horizontal and cyan vertical in the upper-left pocket.
- Alternate the top-3 and left-8 feeds, moving the red L and dark-green pieces only far enough to reopen the pocket center.
- Reduce shutter 6 and use its revealed cells to rotate the white square, blue bars, and remaining green receivers.
- Continue both feed cycles as the tall right shutter falls from 12 and the bottom shutter falls from 11, preserving the right-edge lane.
- After the lower field opens, place the cyan bottom L and blue vertical on the left perimeter while leaving the white/yellow bottom-right corners empty.
- Route the red horizontal, brown vertical, purple verticals, and long green irregular pieces through the center exposed by shutter 12.
- Clear the remaining white, yellow, red, purple, and brown receivers, then work the blue/cyan bars from the perimeter inward.
- In the sparse final layout, finish the green stepped receivers before the last cyan pieces and verify the empty-board SAND BLOCKS animation.
Colors in this level:
Yellow, Green, Cyan, Red, Blue, White, Purple, Brown
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Parking the red L or long green vertical in the only transfer lane beside the tall shutter.
- Treating the shuttered sections as usable space before their counters reach zero.
- Filling the lower white/yellow corners before long receivers have crossed the opened board.
Quick Tips for Sand Blocks Level 236 (quick clues)
- Keep the lane beside each active shutter empty until its counter reaches zero.
- Alternate top and left feeds instead of exhausting one side of the compact opening pocket.
- Save the lower white/yellow corners until long cyan, blue, and green receivers have changed sides.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- A yellow top gate marked 3 and green left gate marked 8 serve a compact red/green/yellow/cyan pocket. Purple shutters marked 6 at lower left, 12 on the tall right side, and 11 across the bottom hide the later receiver field.
- Goal
- Reduce both feed counters and all three shutters, use each revealed area as rotation space, then clear the long green/cyan/blue/white/red/purple/brown/yellow receivers and sparse final pieces.
- Opening
- Match the yellow horizontal under the top gate, then clear the small green horizontal and cyan vertical while keeping the red L out of the pocket center.
- Danger Zone
- A long green vertical or red L beside shutter 12 blocks both early feeds; later, filling the cyan bottom L or white/yellow corner too soon seals the lower cross-board route.
- Mechanics
- Counters 3/8, shutters 6/12/11, staged board expansion, changing feeds, irregular stepped/L footprints, 100% clears, and a green-cyan endgame define the board.
