Sand Blocks: Drop Puzzle Level 276 Walkthrough
Level 276 starts with green 5 and purple feeds above yellow/red pockets, then opens a split lower board whose red and green bars must be cleared around two five-count reservoirs.

How to Solve Sand Blocks Level 276 — Full Solution
- Drag the green receiver from the top feed into the central green cells; wait for the 5 counter to settle to 2, then 1.
- Place the tall yellow receiver from the upper-left pocket beside the upper red receiver, leaving the center chute open; the left counter visibly drops from 32 to 29.
- Clear the upper red square and the second green square, waiting for settling instead of stacking a long bar over the lower reservoirs.
- Feed the yellow L-shaped receiver into the middle-right landing cells, then let the paired lower reservoirs count down from 5 to 1 while the left feed reaches 28.
- When the board expands, place the long red horizontal receiver into the lower-left red row and then the green horizontal bar directly below it; wait for each 100% clear.
- Use the remaining red and yellow bars in the lower-left stack, keeping the blue horizontal lane open; then place the purple vertical receiver in the lower-center column.
- Finish with the green vertical and blue horizontal receivers through the right lane, then the yellow vertical at the far right; wait for the 3 and 2 side counters to clear and confirm the empty-board animation.

Green, Purple, Yellow, Red
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Dragging a long yellow/red piece across the two reservoir mouths before the 32 feed has settled.
- Dropping the right green vertical while the lower-left red row still occupies the shared blue-side landing cell.
- Treating the top timer as a move counter; the required pause is after each receiver reaches 100% and disappears.
Quick Tips for Sand Blocks Level 276 (quick clues)
- Keep the two reservoir mouths visible until their counters reach 1.
- Wait for the top green counter to settle before moving the upper red pocket.
- In the final phase use the lower-left red/green stack before the right green vertical.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- The opening has a green top receiver showing 5, a purple top receiver, a left horizontal feed showing 32, yellow vertical cells at both upper sides, red pockets below them, a green square pair in the center, and two large lower purple reservoirs each showing 5. In the late board the left feed is 25, the lower-left stack is red/green/red/yellow/purple, and a green vertical, purple vertical, blue horizontal and yellow vertical occupy the lower-right cells.
- Goal
- Use the green and purple top feeds to reduce 5 and 32 while both lower reservoirs remain reachable; after their counters fall to 1, clear the late red/green/yellow/purple bars from the lower-left and lower-right without sealing the side chutes.
- Opening
- Drag the small green receiver beneath the green feed into the central green landing cells, then place the yellow vertical in the upper-left pocket beside the red square. The top counter falls 5→2→1 while the left counter moves 32→29→28; wait after each clear before touching either lower reservoir.
- Danger Zone
- A horizontal yellow or red bar across the middle two columns covers both reservoir mouths and strands the 32-feed. A green vertical dropped into the right lane before the lower-left red bar clears also blocks the blue side opening.
- Mechanics
- The board proves two independent five-count lower reservoirs, a 32-count side feed, shared green/purple top feeds, and a late phase where 3-count and 2-count side counters appear on red/blue pieces after the upper receivers clear.
Frequently Asked Questions
What must remain open during the first half?
The center chute between the yellow/red upper pockets and both lower reservoir mouths; it is the only route that lets the 32 feed continue while the two reservoirs count down.
When is the right green vertical safe?
Only after the lower-left red and green horizontal bars have cleared and the blue side lane is visible; otherwise its footprint consumes the final right-lane landing cell.
