How to Solve Sand Blocks Level 262 — Full Solution
- Drag the yellow-white 2x1 pair from below the left 4 reservoir into the left receiver, then place the compact green 1x1 in its lower-left mouth.
- Drag the center white horizontal 2x1 into the middle receiver; wait for the right green counter to change 7 -> 6 -> 4 before touching the lower purple L.
- Drag the blue 1x3 from the lower-right pocket into the blue mouth, then the purple 2x1 from center into its purple mouth; leave the white lock row empty while 12 -> 11 -> 9.
- Feed the large left reservoir 4 -> 3 -> 1 and the tall right reservoir 3 -> 2 -> 1; then drag the white 2x1 beside the lock into the right-side white mouth.
- Move the green L from the lower-left into the center-left green mouth, then the blue corner from bottom-right into the freed lower-left footprint; wait for 14 -> 11 -> 8.
- After the lock icon disappears, slide the purple and pink 1x3 verticals through that right row into their side mouths; keep the yellow 2x1 shelf at lower-right vacant.
- Place the last green 1x1 under the green nozzle and the yellow 2x1 on the lower-right shelf; wait through 6 -> 5 -> 2 -> 1, both 100% fills, and the empty-board animation.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Dropping a blue L into the locked right row before the white receiver clears.
- Filling both reservoir mouths and leaving no lower-left landing cells for the green L.
- Using the right yellow shelf before the final counter chain reaches 1.
Quick Tips for Sand Blocks Level 262 (quick clues)
- Do not occupy the locked right row while 12/9/13 are still falling.
- Open the white receiver beside the lock before routing the lower blue L.
- Reserve the right yellow shelf for the final feed.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Three feeds sit over purple reservoirs marked 4 and 3; the right feed carries green 7. White, blue, green, pink, and purple pieces fill the center with counters 12/9/13 and a small right lock row.
- Goal
- Reduce the reservoir and center counters, open the right lock row, then use the lower-left lane for the green L and final yellow bar.
- Opening
- Clear the yellow-white pair below the left reservoir, then the center green square and white horizontal before reducing green 7 to 4.
- Danger Zone
- The locked right row shares horizontal landing cells with the white receiver; a premature blue L traps counters 8 and 6 and blocks the bottom yellow drop.
- Mechanics
- Visible counters, right lock tile, three feeds, reservoir shutters, and staged green-to-yellow finish are evidenced.
