How to Solve Sand Blocks Level 269 — Full Solution
- Feed grey into the upper-left grey receiver and wait for the layer to settle, then clear the adjacent purple piece.
- Send orange to the upper-right receiver and pause while the 18/17 counters step down; keep the lock icon and gate footprint clear.
- Clear the upper green L, yellow horizontal, white shelf and cyan square in the visible top-shelf order.
- Drain the upper red L and purple vertical until lock counter 3 moves toward 1; do not enter the lower tier early.
- After the purple reservoir unlocks, route the brown L through the central opening, then place the orange bar on the lower shelf and wait.
- Clear the lower green corner and small yellow shelf around the gate, leaving that shelf available for the next feed.
- Use the released middle for remaining white/green receivers, then drain the lower brown corner without bridging the gate.
- Wait for both tiers to go dark and verify the final brown/green sand reaches 100%.

Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Grey and orange feeds top two tiers. A large purple locked reservoir with counter 3 spans the middle; upper green/purple/yellow/red/white/cyan pieces sit above a lower brown L, orange bars and green corner receivers.
- Goal
- Empty the upper shelf, lower the lock counter, then route the lower brown and green pieces through the central gate.
- Opening
- Fill the upper-left grey receiver and top-right orange receiver, then drain the visible 18/17 shelf counters while leaving the purple lock and central gate untouched.
- Danger Zone
- A lower brown L in the center seals the cross-tier lane; green must not cover the small yellow shelf.
- Mechanics
- Two tiers, large locked purple reservoir, lock counter, upper-to-lower transition, and brown-green terminal cluster.
